Horb

I got rejected.

That makes a lot of sense. I didn't really think about it like that!

Still nothing

Hahah thanks! Why don't we find marburg in America and just do a program there? There must be a city called that

I'm refusing the be positive, should I get my hopes up.

Oh. I am a "W" so that would make sense.

Soprano, where did you apply to?

Who did it come from? I'm sorry guys. I'm just panicking because I haven't heard back . . .

Sorry for the rejections, guys. I'm sure I'll join you soon enough.

I haven't heard back yet...

Ugh. I'm really frustrated with this. Time to listen to some Die Prinzen and relax.

Thank God I didn't originally apply for May/June like I initially wanted to do. Why it is taking so long is beyond me. You think they would have sorted us out before the people whose grants don't start until September/October.

Re: Funding --> I think they allot a certain amount per individual. So if you're program costs less, then you have more living expenses. I'm waiting to figure that part out though, because I don't want to end up owing the ticket cost and the majority of the other costs, though I think both of my programs were cheaper than 2300. But I guess I shouldn't worry until I find out

Haha. Ya I applied to Bonn and Marburg and if be equally happy at both. I too have been broken and don't check frequently. Though I'm still hoping for today.

I applied to Marburg too! Hopefully we go! That'd be so awesome!

Maybe I'll convince a friend to call and ask about notifications . . .

I'm not really sure, but I also do not know how it is divided. I've heard that people who apply to lesser known locations have a better chance, because you are going up against a smaller amount of people. I'm not sure of the validity of this, but it would make sense if tons of people apply to Berlin vs. Schwäbisch Hall or something. I would hope we have enough time to review the funding involved, since the website said that not everything is necessarily covered.

Haha. Very true. I wonder if they do alternates. I think I'd just die if I got an alternate status.

Haha. I requested two four week programs, since the online thing said it could be fore 8 weeks and I figured, why not? So for both I say June-July. Hopefully that works out How long do you think they'll give us to decided, assuming we are chosen?

Ohhh. Ok, yeah, that would make more sense. I highly doubt if you requested Berlin and Bonn for May/June or something they'd decide July/August and München. Although maybe! I'd take a change of location over a change in time, but that could just be me

So at least there's that

I'm not sure they actually can do that. I know when I applied, it specifically said that I would get the dates and locations I applied for and that if I received the grant, and wanted to change either, I would not be able to. I do not recall seeing anything about them placing us wherever, but perhaps I missed it? I mean, why would they even bother asking for preference if they weren't going to use it?

Thanks for trying! Looks like another day of waiting

I'd really appreciate someone calling. I don't want to email again, but at this point, my program is less than 5 weeks away. I imagine others are in a similar situation in which they have to make plans soon.
