  1. I see you are in Memphis?! Me too! Where do you attend univ?
  2. I have had quite a bit of correspondence with my commission, and they have not sent the Grant Authorization document yet. Don't fret! I also received a checklist, and it listed the Grant Authorization document as something that would be sent around May. (I found out I was a finalist in early March.) Hope this makes you feel better!
  3. It depends on where exactly you are wanting to live. Where will you be attending school, or do you have an idea of town where you would like to live? Although not realty sites, Choose901.com and ILoveMemphisblog.com are helpful resources for things happening in the city and just to make you excited about your move.
  4. If they have a commission, go to the website. I found my stipend information on the Bulgarian Commission website. Start checking out the documents you have to submit via the finalist resource page. I think once you are "official" by submitting your documents, they will tell you more!
  5. @Mechka I will also be an ETA in Bulgaria!
  6. I also applied to City Year (in NY) as a back-up! I'm glad to know someone else is considering both Fulbright ETA and City Year.
  7. Thank you all so much for your input! I didn't think it was reasonable to go right into an IEP program, but it can feel like you are being left behind if you don't go straight to grad school. I'm hoping to be a finalist for an ETA position through the Fulbright program in order to get started with more in-depth experience that would be relevant to IEP. Thanks again for your wisdom @heather1011 @marature @betweenthepages
  8. Although I did not apply for an IEP Master's program this year, I am considering it for the next application season. Did most of you take time between undergrad and applying for these programs to gain related experience, or will you be going straight from undergrad to your program? I tried to get an idea from your posts, but it was difficult to determine.
  9. Hi! I am currently a senior at the UofM. I am not originally from Memphis, but I have LOVED my time here. If you are looking for housing off campus, there are many quaint houses for rent in the Midtown area just a few minutes west of the campus. Many people live just south of campus within walking distance to campus. Crime seems to be relatively lower in the midtown area than south of campus. Look at streets off of Central Avenue to start you search such as Reese and Ellsworth. (And by crime in these areas, I mean robbery--not major gang crime.)
  10. I also was interviewed for the ETA in Bulgaria. My interview was a couple a weeks ago on the 19th. My questions were slightly different than yours, but still basic, predictable questions. Does anyone know where I can find the link to the past spreadsheets? They said in the interview, I would be notified around the end of March. I wanted to compare to past years, but I am new to gradcafe!
