I'm feeling the same way right now. I have class at 7am too and I can not sleep. I turned off all email notifications. Grad Cafe is pretty much going to tell me when emails go out.
They always had a date of January 30th but it depends how quickly they get all of the decisions back in a timely manner. Each person gets about 50-100 applications (depending on country and grant category). If they finish it early we know early.
I literally go to school a few doors down from IIE and due to the first two weeks of January being a mess a lot of the government buildings in the area, including the UN were closed. They are probably behind to be honest.
I applied to New Zealand to research how tourism effects and/or improves cultural connections (ie. Maori culture)in country while getting my graduate/Masters degree.
Looking at what everyone else applied for mine sounds boring lol.
Hey everyone,
So i just found this group right after I submitted my application. I am applying for a Study/Research Grant to New Zealand. My school just recently got an advisor so I am the only one from my school who applied. Crossing my fingers and good luck to everyone else.
