Thanks.
I had to inform my FPA that I was recommended. He congratulated me, but he was not the first to tell me.
I guess it depends on how involved in campus life the FPA is. He does a lot of things at my school, and the semester had just begun.
Well, we shall see what happens in the next 2 weeks!
I don't think that the dates/ days are significant; they were not relevant last year. Indonesia released the information a month sooner. The days of the week for notification are all over the board, and there are no apparent trends.
Haha, yes: group hug!
I'm a little anxious, but more ready for the news. I'm not checking my email everyday like for the first round. It's a different feeling.
That does make sense. My FPA did not discourage me from applying to Spain, but he did emphasize that applying there is very competitive. I think most people were discouraged about applying to Spain due to the recent economic problems (especially with unemployment). It appears that funding may have not been cut for Fulbright programs.
