Scholarship decisions are not announced until after the final application deadline for your program. Therefore, it is possible to receive an admission decision for the program itself, but still be awaiting a scholarship award decision.
For example, if the final deadline to apply to a program is June 1, you will not receive a decision until 2-4 weeks after June 1. All applicants will be informed of a decision via email, whether or not they are chosen for the award.
If you are chosen for the scholarship, the award will be posted to your account 10 days before the start of the semester, so please proceed with paying your program fees by the payment deadline minus the scholarship amount. You can email visiting-intl@berkeley.edu if you have further questions about scholarship billing and payment.
