Congrats! Last year's forum thread makes it look like May... but I think at first we only find out which state, not the exact town or school, that will take longer, maybe until June or July. However, I'm wondering if we might possibly find out sooner this year because we have already heard this much, and it's about 2 weeks earlier than I was expecting..... Which Bundesländer did you request? I chose Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Saarland and Baden-Württemberg. Also: Does anyone know how long it typically takes to get results for the blood tests (hematology; blood glucose, cholesterol, creatinine; etc.) on the last page of the medical form? I live about 2 hours away from my doctor... so getting this form filled out in the throws of my last semester is going to be tough. Are people going to skip the "optional" tests, like urinalysis and sickle hemoglobin? Or does that look suspicious to skip them? How do we find out whether or not Germany requires the syphilis or HIV test? Thank you so much in advance!

Hi fellow Germany ETA-ers, I was really surprised today to find a big manila envelope from New York waiting for me in the mailbox. I'm in Maine, and they sent it to my current address, not my permanent. I've been accepted and I'm in complete shock!!! Soooo get ready, folks, it's coming! We're so lucky to find out so soon--I, too, was expecting to hear sometime in April. Also, I've heard that it takes a while longer to hear about our exact placements within Germany. But still, this is great! Good luck to you all!
