If there’s an early leak then maybe the CFA status should be updated for members too. What do you see when you search for yourself in the directory (link below)? Do you see the CFA at the end of your name?
Totally agreed. This alone makes me think this could be bunk. Either that or this is a large amount of disclosure/selection bias. It takes a pretty emotionally strong person to admit this could be correct and they only received one message only. It’s possible many one-message only people are specifically not commenting.
Pretty sure they’re not going to allow this to happen. I don’t think their coders are bad enough to attach those letters before everything is done. I mean that’s a major no-no. A scholarship snafu is one thing, attaching letters before the fact is another…IMHO
See two boxes - “you are not eligible to apply for access scholarship”
Candidate only (not a member)
Felt good after the exam, but 6/10 because AM is so weird.
FYI: I’ve never applied for a scholarship before. I didn’t know this page existed. This is the first time I’ve gone through these steps. Best of luck to everyone.
Let me explain my reasoning, if we can get a charterholder to login to the member site, and do as we did…Search for Scholarship Apply, and attempt to get to the page to Apply for Scholarship.
What does it say for a CFA charterholder? If it says “You are not eligible to apply”. That may be telling. But how do we find a charterholder to do this test?
I doubt whether or not this is really a tell to be honest. There are way too many people on this board who’ve said they have the “not eligible” box … and I know AF represents well on the exam but this feels a little too one-sided.
