For Turkey ETA's: Do you know what to write in the visa request form for occupation? Right now, I am a paralegal. Should I write that? Or should I write that I will be an Assistant English Teacher?

Would any Turkey ETAs be willing to contact the Fulbright office in Turkey to see if they have finalized placements/when they plan on having placements finalized by? Here is an e-mail address from the Turkey Fulbright website (http://www.fulbright.org.tr/en/contact-us): Scholarships for Americans Seçil Yazıcıoğlu / Ayşe Sipahioğlu amprog@fulbright.org.tr

Any Turkey updates?

Does anyone know of any status updates for Turkey ETAs?

Could you also ask if Turkey ETA decisions were sent today as well? Thanks!!

When I was worried that I wouldn't receive notification from Fulbright before I had to tell my job whether or not I would be staying on for another year, I e-mailed Rachel Holskin and explained to her the situation. She said that she could tell me if I received the grant or not once the letters were sent out. So, if in fact they will be issuing decisions for Spain this Tuesday, you can call Rachel on Tuesday or Wednesday and see if she will let you know whether or not you got it over the phone.

4/8/10 - Turkey update from Rachel Holskin: "Preliminary selections were submitted this morning. We’re now waiting on final confirmation of placements for the ETAs. I would expect we’ll send out notification letters next week."

I don't...Rachel Holskin never said. Would you mind e-mailing her and asking when notifications would be sent out. I assume that they will be sent out next week...

Turkey update from Rachel Holskin: "The FSB approval is in, and we’re expecting selections from the Turkish Commission this week."

I have not. I was thinking of contacting her again sometime this week. Have you contacted her?

I spoke with one of the program managers at IIE and she said that notifications from countries differ from year to year so it can be hard to predict when you'll hear back. However, I would contact the program manager for Macau and see if she/he can tell you where they are in the selection process. A week and a half ago I contacted the program manager for Turkey, and she told me she had not heard of any updates yet, but that I can e-mail her periodically to see if there are.

Does anyone know around what time we will receive e-mail notification today?

Who is Walter Jackson? Are you a Fulbright Advisor or applicant?

Is there a specific date that we find out whether or not we make it to the second round?
