Has anyone else received an invitation for this? Any idea if it is a general send out to members or a genuine invitation?
Thanks

Re: Starnow Audition for a Scholarship Award
Who/what is the scholarship award for?
I think you are very right to be cautious.
I've come across this sort of thing before as a hook to get people to "audition " for really, really expensive part time "courses" and "showcases opportunities".
They hook people by flattery and the scholarship is very rarely something for a course or opportunity worth attending nor does it cover all costs.
It may be all above board, but I think you're wise to be cynical!

We had an invitation as well & have ignored it - I don't trust this sort of thing at all!

Thanks for the replies - and yes I think its best to give a wide berth!
