Has anyone looked at their career outcomes pdf??? It's a bit dismal. Most people are working as program assistants when they graduate. I got in with little funding (5000 a year) but they dont seem to have any idea what their graduates are doing or what they are making when Ive called. I'm worried it isn't a program that prepares people for employment. Have you guys found otherwise??

I am going to assume no email is a waitlist sign. Hopefully I can be an alternate! but if not I'll grab your advice for next year.

I dont know I knew someone got notified for SAFLI

UGH I have to hope now that maybe I will be waitlisted. I didn't apply to extend which I knew was risky.

I have the same feeling. Doesn't change my goal, but waiting sucks.

I'm waiting for other SAFLIs! woot

YAY! CONGRATS

Dang I wish we knew when Flagships would be notified

Hey good luck!

OMG THIS IS KILLING ME hahaha too intense I am trying to prep myself for rejection. Doesn't change the goal at all which is nice. but still! Ah!

Yes I'm waiting to for SAFLI

I'm trying to remind myself the flagship programs may be organized a bit differently. So far no flagship applicants have gotten emails right?

Congrats!! Fellowship? Flagship? Which country?

YOU GUYS! It will suck so bad if its not today! I heard though alternates will find out later down the road. That's what I was told, but not sure

Oh man following this forum has been good and bad. Didn't sleep much.

Good luck everyone!

If I dont get it it might actually be better, then I can write a proposal to go to Nepal which is my real dream. What are all of you studying? Majors? School?

I am applying for the fellowship to learn Hindi in Jaipur. I don't expect to get it since I literally applied last minute with spelling mistakes and all in my letter hahah but at least I tried. I want to study informal labor economics in India to work on policy that economically empowers women. I just got into the university of denver and I'm waiting to hear back from American university. I did not apply for longer than the 6 months, so again might not get it, but you never know! I heard the SAFLI is not as predictable as to who gets it and who doesn't. Fingers crossed for all of us!

Is this for the south Asian flagship program? Or a different one? I didn't get that email.

I haven't had time to go through this forum yet, but I applied for the South Asian Flag Ship program. Has anyone else applied for this? When I emailed them they said the 3rd week of April applicants would be notified and wait listed people the following week. The Flagship coordinator emailed me, "Hi Heidi, Awardees will be notified the third week of April and wait-listed or alternative awardees should be notified by the end of the month/beginning of next month. Good luck" That means if you don't hear sometime next week you are probably wait listed or rejected.
