Hey Tina, I have applied for the program in November 2021, but I am not able to see my application status, the website says that "Something went wrong, try again later"
Is it because the website server is down Or Is there something wrong with the application?

Oh okay, as long as you've received a confirmation email there shouldn't be an issue I guess, just don't edit the application after November 30th otherwise it will be considered for the next cohort. Hope this helps you! :)

Incredible program for students! I would like to study in Microsoft, one of the most technological companies in the world, but I am hardly skilled enough =(
I will continue to dream of such training, because at home in college I am bored and do not want to study at all. I use uk.edubirdie.com/assignment-expert to somehow perform the tasks that are required of me. This resource helps me a lot. I hope that next year the study will be more interesting.

Students will be thrilled by this program! I'd like to go to Microsoft which is one of the largest technologically advanced companies, but my capabilities are not sufficient.( I'll always dream about such a program because I'm bored at home during college and don't wish to learn anything in any way. To do the activities that are required of me, I use britishessaywriters.co.uk/assignme... . This is a great resource for me. I'm hoping the research will be more fascinating next year.

Hello, I had a doubt the thing is I submitted my application on 1st of this july and havent yet received any information regarding my result for the same. So, like is this normal for the review process to take this long or is there an issue cause i got the confirmation mail saying "Thanks for applying to MLSA program and all ".

Hi Shivang, the results are announced on a quarterly basis, so if you've applied after 31st may which was the last date for the previous cohort, you'll be getting your result in and around October. The mail you got was a confirmation email which would have been sent immediately after you registered. Hope this clears your doubt! :)

Thanks for reply,
I got this feedback
• Are your responses unique? Are they original and fresh?
• Did you answer the relevant question? Did you stay on topic?
• Is your video accessible? Is the link public?

My answer to all those questions is "yes", but don't know why I got rejected. But anyways I will try again. If you have any tips or suggestions, please help me.
