A few days after the deadline, I received another email from Boren asking for confirmation of my update (I'd listed a significant amount of financial aid). Does anyone know if asking for a smaller amount gives me any sort of advantage?
A Boren rep came to my school and I asked her about that and she emphasized really strongly that the amount you ask for doesn't affect your chances.

LimaBeans,
My particular email was for the UF Summer AFLI program. My proposal was for an African language. Hope this helps. I don't know about jroc.
Hmm, I didn't get one last week. I think I've gotten four total from UF, though? Two registration confirmations (when I registered) and two prompting me to set up a UF Gator account (March 19). Plus an email from the Boren people right after the deadline reminding me to register for it (feb 7).

Me too, pschicago! I also applied for a Boren Scholarship to the AFLI Wolof/French program in Senegal. And I also received a "budget email" asking me to log in to my NSEP login account and update my program dates, study abroad costs, and any financial aid info! How exciting! I'm not sure if this email was sent to everyone or if this is the fabled cryptic acceptance email of years past, but either way, it can't be a bad thing we are being contacted further. I hope we are both accepted and I get to meet you in the fall!
I'm actually just applying for wolof, not french, but either way, yes, good luck to you too!
