Update to 2015/16 TNRI Scholarship applicants

We have now finished marking the essays and the committee has subsequently endorsed the decision to ONLY allow applicants with a score above the 97th percentile to progress through to the next/final stage.

As a result of this decision, 7 applicants out of 413 valid entries shall progress through to the second/final stage.

We are now in the process of sending out your individual outcomes so please ensure you check the email address you used in sending the entries.

How we arrived at the final 7:
• 8 markers independent of the committee were recruited to help mark the essays
• Each essay was assigned a pseudonymised ID then forwarded to the markers
• The markers were instructed to strictly use the published marking guide (as shown below) as reference when marking the essays
• We decided to use percentile ranking so as to embed consistency and fairness into our scoring methodology
