hey all! i'm here, rooting for you still. just wondering if some people who have already received acceptances (GERMAN SPEAKERS ESPECIALLY) were doing blogs? I am creating one and I was hoping to link some of you so that people could read what you were doing too! PM me or just link 'em here when you make them. I'd love to include you! Danke sehr!

I know, I found this place in january. #endlessanxiety

CHINA! CONGRATS!

hey all, just wanted to say that i am still lurking and hoping for you all! also, has this been brought up yet? not just that applications are open, but that there's already a new forum? what?

Bulgaria

I know of an alternate who has already been moved to accepted.

In case anyone was wondering, I know someone who was moved today to accepted from alternate. Just in case anyone was interested. Anything is possible!

I'm so glad you got it!! Yay!

Not sure. Could be a mix of both?

Yes. Which is what I applied for.

Just in case anyone was wondering, my email came straight from Austria, not through New York. I just thought since there were ideas coming through about all information being from the American end this year. So 10:30 am is actually late afternoon over in Austria. Just a thhhought

Well, applying for that specifically makes you more desirable as a candidate for Austria. But for me, I wanted to study as well as teach, and here you get to do both. It's just a unique opportunity.

It's an option for Austria. Full/ETA combined. It's a great hybrid and a big reason I chose to apply to Austria and not Germany.

Remember someone found out yesterday at 6 pm EST!

I will! Thanks!

daytonian here

Also... I'm actually from Ohio, studying in Kentucky! So yes, all of the above. Crossing my fingers for you all

Yes indeed! Maybe some bourbon. Maybe both!

so instead of writing my two papers today, i think i'm going to invest in a bottle of wine.

Thanks! What a feeling of relief! I'm SO HAPPY

I have a feeling there will indeed be more today. I'll still be following this thread, because now I have you guys to root for!

The subject was: "Candidacy for a Fulbright Award to Austria, 2013-14" The email itself didn't say anything like "congrats!" it started with "thank you for your interest..." and talked about needing to accept formally or something. and it had the letter attached. I just couldn't figure out what it meant!

Don't know if it was the same for you, but the letter of acceptance was attached to an email that began: "Thank you for your interest in the Fulbright program." I thought: dear God no.

ME TOO AUSTRA AHHHHHHHHHH

man. i want SOMEONE to find out today so that we know they haven't forgotten us.
