definitely yes.
BUT
this doesn't mean you will for sure get the visa, you still have to prepare your application to best of your knowledge and convince the VO that you will leave their country at the end of study period.

You meant "hey dudette".. ;) well I got thru the GBM program for Jan 13 intake. Better apply soon as last date for receiving your application is Oct 12th... and they will let us know by Oct 29th. I anyways paid the first year fee today! So will be applying for visa in the first week of Nov once i know about the scholarship so i can attach that as well along with the visa.

And all the best!
