Hey everyone!
First, I'm extremely excited that I stumbled upon this forum. I've been searching for applicant groups on Facebook and haven't found anything. I've been reading all of the above posts and I'm glad I'm not the only nervous one!
My name is Brandon, and I am a freshman at Loyola University Chicago. I know I'm probably one of the younger ones, but I applied for a Boren scholarship to study Thai in Thailand with the USAC program. I previously studied for one year in Thailand with the YES Abroad program (State Department high school scholarship program, similar to CBYX and NSLI-Y) my senior year of high school. I can't wait to go back! Hopefully I receive the scholarship, but I will still be going abroad if I do not.
Nice to (kind of) meet all of you! Good luck!
Today (Friday) may be the day! Who knows.
