Ukraine ETA.

Got an email from my country program this morning. During my interview they said they would try to notify me this week, but my new email says that they likely won't be able to notify until April due to the State Dept. being on a "continuing resolution" on the topic of funding. I don't know if this only applies to my country, or if it applies to all of us... The last paragraph of the email really confused me, because they said they look forward to meeting me in person and that they're excited about what I plan to do. I don't know if this means they plan to except me (if funding works out, of course) or if this was just a stock email they sent out to all semi-finalists for my country. Either way, it was terrifying to see in my inbox, because the email preview said "Thank you for your interview with us. Unfortunately..."

This was in my interview request email: " We have been informed by ECA about having all U.S. student notifications go out by March 1. " Does anybody know if this means we find out our final status on March 1st? Or does that just mean the country sends their final choices to the FSB?

Hi all, Here is the link to last year's "Notification Dates by Grant Year" spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AlU2xDiiVhQjK3quPy6qXJuhgXYghzzG8L4YNT0unX0/edit?usp=sharing I had it saved on my drive from 2016 or so. Right now it's in View Only mode and it looks like we don't have access to editing, so I'll put in a request and see what happens. Either way, it's helpful (and reassuring) information as the wait gets shorter!
