Although it is not technically Fulbright, does anyone know if decisions have been sent out for Austria USTAs? It seems like in previous years they have been sent out by now, but I am seeing no evidence of this year's decisions on the web (or in my constantly-refreshed inbox).
Not sure if you got this resolved, but I believe my friend was accepted to this today. Hope that helps!

Take heart alternates - my best friend was promoted today to principal for the ETA in Colombia!

I go to Truman, a small state school in Missouri, and of our 9 ETA semifinalists, 8 of us are finalists and the 9th is an alternate! We are all overjoyed and can't believe our good luck!
FOUR to Spain (including me), one to South Africa, one to Korea, one to Georgia, one to Nepal, and an alternate for Colombia. I'm a very proud Bulldog today!

I made this in case anyone is interested. Feedback welcome! I'm pretty new to couchsurfing myself but there was no group for Fulbrighters. Now there is!

Andorra ETA was announced today!!! Any other finalist here?
The clarity, despite what fate, was much needed. Good luck everyone who awaits with impatience.
Congrats! I'm a Spain ETA and am hoping to visit Andorra at some point. Maybe we will run into each other!

Looks like Armenia just came out! Congrats to any of you who got one!

Did all finalists get two emails?
For my Spain ETA, I initially got two emails, then got a third the next day from the commission.

I WAS SELECTED FOR A FULBRIGHT ETA POSITION FOR LA RIOJA SPAIN! I'm a senior in college and teach Spanish in an immersion program once a week to kids and I checked my email during class this evening (my kiddos probably thought I was insane) and I couldn't help but leap for joy once I read my email! I am so lucky! Being a first generation college student and the first in my family to graduate high school, I don't feel I even deserve such a prestigious award. Who else will be in La Rioja, Spain with me? We all have to talk!!!
Hoping for Galicia! That's what I put. Did they tell you officially you'd be in La Rioja? I don't have my placement yet!

I'm sorry to hear that Those Caribbean countries have so few grants! I'm sure they are among the most competitive!

...did you happen to learn who they were working on? Although the person that does Europe doesn't do Germany soooo
I didn't ask, sorry. But it's not like she can not give you it because you call, it's not her decision anyway. I'd go ahead and call!

Haha. Sure you are
If you go onto the website http://us.fulbrightonline.org/countries/regions and click on the region, the American contact person will be listed on the left side of the page.

No notifications today! I hope they are doing a big one like Spain ETA or something.
I'm officially shameless and have no qualms with calling. Just checked, they aren't working on Spain and it probably won't be today since they haven't heard decisions from the country yet.

Any tweet saying if they are open or not today? If they are closed I can at least stop refreshing my email even if the nerves don't go away...

Every country is different, so idk how useful it will be unless someone is familiar with Thailand. That being said, I know a couple people who have been abroad the summer before their Fulbright and they can work with, in your case, the Thai embassy in x country. (My friend is doing CLS Chinese and Fulbright Colombia, and she will get her Colombian visa this summer in China.)
Hope that helps! Sorry I don't know I don't know specifics about Thailand.
