Thanks all for the welcome! Yeah I did get the email. I wouldn't be able to go abroad at all without the Boren so I'm gonna need to pick another country altogether. At this point I'm thinking Jordan as they seem to have the best language programs... My preference would probably be to split time between Jordan and morocco, but I'm guessing boren wouldn't allow that. But maybe they'd be nice since I can't go to Egypt haha any thoughts?
I am a lurker! I've probably given this page a ton of views too. And I'm also an Egypt scholarship applicant, which is a huge bummer. Where are you thinking of applying instead?
