I was told, by a UK lecturer, that a Bsc 2.2 and Msc with Distinction would qualify me for a Commonwealth Scholarship. I have applied, in my country, for this scholarship and have received a letter stating that I have been disqualified from the competition because I have a 2.2 Bsc and the minimum requirement for the scholarship was 2.1 Bsc. Please, any comments.

I think that you do need a basic 2.1 for consideration or a first a MSc is not a requirement.

i got a 2.1 and was disqualified. a first, am convinced, or a 2.1 with other achievements eg. publishing is what they look for.
