I don't know but it seems like a good torture technique...
They're trying to prepare us with the patience we'll need during our time abroad.

....What if they come out at 6pm EST...
-
T-minus 5 minutes (give or take) till we find out... We'll either be crying or celebrating but we'll all get through it! Good luck!

Approved! But I bumped into my advisor and they told me because they thought I already knew... But the official notices should come out at 5pm. So you can stop refreshing your email every 2 mins till then lol. Best of luck everyone!
CONGRATS!

I feel like I get anxious as every hour comes around... For some reason I have it in my head that they'll email at the start of a new hour and not in the middle...

Thank god. Either way, we're all in this together!
Clearly we're all stalking reddit and gradcafe for any responses

Hi all! I'm so on edge!
On reddit, some are speculating that it's not until 1/30 and alleging this is stated on the Fulbright website timeline (I don't interpret it that way). That can't be right, though, can it? Assuming people here are being truthful about having been notified, wouldn't everyone else's decisions be coming out today as well?
I saw that too! I think they will come out today by 5pm. I think Fulbright may put the 30th on their website as a final date everyone must be notified and so they have a latest date on their end.

as sam 89 said, yes I got that email around 4:00 p.m. CST yesterday so we should all be hearing sometime today hopefully.
Interesting! My advisor emailed at 4:39pm EST so I guess all the advisors get emailed at the same time too. You think we'll hear around the same time?

Does this perhaps mean that only the campus representatives are getting the emails today and we have to wait another day?
Nope! my campus advisor emailed me yesterday saying we would hear today! So I guess he had the result when he emailed me. But either way we find out soon hopefully!! I think most people say between now and 5..

So I just read an email from my campus representative that helped me fill out my application. She said I'm considered! I guess they get notice before the applicants do? Good luck to everyone else!
Congrats!! Good luck to everyone!

Based on the Google Doc, it seems like some people are already getting notifications!
Which doc are you looking on? This one? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AlU2xDiiVhQjK3quPy6qXJuhgXYghzzG8L4YNT0unX0/edit#gid=929221519
It looks like just Malaysia and Finland which I heard have an additional application or something? But they were notified by their host country

So what's the general consensus here, that we're going to hear something towards the end of the day?
I think around 4-5pm. Last year it came out around then. Although I think the year before it came out around 1pm.

Good luck to all! Now the real countdown begins...

Just wanted to let everyone know that my FPA just reached out to tell us that Fulbright results will be emailed to us tomorrow directly from the Embark/Fulbright program. So I guess I can stop obsessively checking my email for the day?
Yeah my FPA advisor just told me the same thing. Sometime tomorrow.. sigh

Anyone else kind of NOT wanna know? I sort of like living in this fantasy of pretending I've got a shot haha
YES! On one hand I want to know if I made it through the first round, on the other... let me live in my fantasy longer! I think the craziest part is that this is ONLY round one! Not even final decisions. That's going to be a mess eek
-
I think regardless of when we think it'll actually come out, we're all still be frantically checking out emails at all hours of the day. Don't think I'm going to get any sanity until the emails go out!
-
What if it's all just a big troll and they don't release anything today... been checking my emails every few minutes today! There goes any hope of being productive today!

If I hadn't gotten an email from my advisor myself, I would have thought the same
