I get that. Do you have GroupMe, KakaoTalk, or WeChat? Is there another option you prefer?

I'm applying for Chinese (ICLP-Taiwan)!
Do you think it would be worth it to create a slack chat for any other applicants that might see this?

Just dropping in on this thread in case there are other applicants for the 2021-2022 cycle who want to commiserate lol ?

Awesome!! 

Guys, the fact that we even got to the point of finishing and sending in our applications says a lot about what we're capable of! So regardless of what happens, we have to keep that in mind!

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.

I was on my way to a RPDR All Stars viewing party because I, like probably all of us, needed something to take my mind of off this thing -- and then as I was getting on the bus I severely sprained my ankle. So now I'm at home, with frozen vegetables for company, and nothing but time to anxiously google fulbrighter blogs and incessantly check embark/email/the spreadsheet.
tomorrow will get here soon, I hope

Hi! I've been following this feed for the past week--I think my anxiety just signed up for an account for me so that I could find comfort in participating haha.
I applied for a research/study Fulbright in Israel. Good luck everyone!! If you're like me then you'll definitely be popping a melatonin tonight.  

Yes, they will know tomorrow morning!
My FPA told me: "FPAs don't know until tomorrow am, actually. We do not personally announce to applicants. We are notified just a hair in advance so that we can prepare to be supportive for those who may not advance, primarily. Also to start planning mock-interviews, getting recent country interview advice from colleagues, etc."

I’m in the same boat! I was accepted into the University program mid-January. Curiously, my fulbright application says it was updated 13 days ago, which is one day after I was accepted to the University. I assume Fulbright needs to make sure I was accepted into the program either way? 
Thankfully, my deposit isn’t due until April. I think by April we’ll know for sure if we’re finalists. 
Like all of you, I’m waiting anxiously to hear about initial notifications!
