or, we can just have a big happy hour when people go for the convocation!

you guys should add your information to the spreadsheet! it'll be nice to see all the information laid out when they announce the winners https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ak8VXdo5DCQmdHBKamV4b0NPa3hBRUJqRkxlZGdpRGc#gid=0

What was wrong the budget part if you don't mind me asking? Did they say anything else? Regardless, it seems like a really good thing on your behalf! Let's hope all 'the' buget update email recipients hear good news!

Taesan, I saw the spreadsheet said you got a dates e-mail. is this different than the update budget e-mail we both got?

Has anyone actually heard of someone not getting the Boren Scholarship or at least alternate when they got the budget e-mail. Last year, everyone on the thread who got the e-mail was at least designated alternate. Someone said the budget e-mails give you a 66% chance of getting it, but I've yet to hear of a single person who didn't get anything.

I was looking over the spreadsheet from last year, and noticed all of the people who received the budget update e-mail received awards or were chosen as alternates. Do you guys know if people get turned down even if they got the e-mail?

I received a budget e-mail! Scholarship, Arabic in Tunisia w/ CET for a year.
