Dear Rachel

Gates Cambridge Scholarships: interview results

Thank you for being available for interview last week.

I am delighted to let you know that you have been awarded a Gates Cambridge Scholarship. A formal offer letter will come from the Trust’s office in Cambridge shortly.

this is, naturally, blowing my mind. the next three years have crystallized & this is a v. good thing.
