To those worried about your decision coming in the physical mail and not by email, I received an email today confirming my acceptance received in the physical mail on Friday. Same kind of email as everyone else. They must send the physical copies out a little early and figure the email usually gets sent first?
Yeah...my wife kept calling and calling while I was completing TA responsibilities. She knew I was busy, so I figured it was something like she had gotten into a car accident. Needless to say, this was far better news!
Found this thread last week while I was trying to enjoy Spring Break and avoid all Fulbright news. Clearly wasn't very successful!
I am a recommended candidate for a full study grant to Ecuador! Based on previous years, it seems likely that I will get some news in the next week or two!
Good luck to all!
