to increase the marketability and traction of the CFA program in the media at the expense of our torment. Good one CFAI lol

If this ‘not eligible’ thing is in fact a tell, it would be a pretty sloppy one on the part of CFAI. The Manage Scholarship Application is very visible and with something so overt (actual text instead of an obscure error message) seems a bit too obvious.
Nevertheless, my personal theory is that it is, in fact, a tell and that those ‘not eligible’ passed and those without the message did not. It’s painful to say as I’m a ‘Group 1er’ who WAS confident I passed; yet, the above is, BY FAR, the most logical explanation so I choose to believe it.
I think the CFAI realizes they have that early tell out there (if they didn’t before, they certainly will after trolling this board), but with only one day to go anyways, I think they just said “F It”. After all, let’s not forget they already, in unprecedented fashion, leaked the 54% last week.
If all this is true, I am very surprised I failed…but, it is what it is.
From what I heard, changing a website behind the scenes for half the population but keeping *everything* the same for the client-facing portion is harder than you think. Partially it’s because it’s rarely done, because what site would ever request this? Additionally, I’m willing to guess the CFAI probably doesn’t have Google-level coders. No shade to the CFAI intended, it’s just it’s not their main thing and I doubt many coders would love to live in CVille. Anyway, I hope it’s wrong in your case.

Doesnt mean anything. If youre not eligible then dont apply. That simple.
The best is going to be tomorrow when the first person who posts a fail AND had both boxes. Mayhem.

That won’t happen. It doesn’t even make sense. If what you say occurs…then all of sudden we’ve got a huge batch of re-takers ineligible TO APPLY for the scholarship?
Anyone can APPLY for the scholarship. But taking away that access means only one thing…
