@foreignpolicy123Taking one for the team - respect.?

Oooh yeah. Well they haven't been super active on twitter in the past few days/weeks so who knows if they'll say anything or if it will just be a surprise. I wonder if they tweet something like this every year. I know some people from the last cohort called Boren to ask when they'd be announcing, so if any of us get desperate enough that's another option lol

Anyone else holding their breath today?? I'll be refreshing my email nonstop until 11:59 PM haha! Good luck to us all?

Oh! "By" being the operative word! That gives me a little more hope! Thanks haha

One of my friends got Boren last year (South Africa) but hasn't been given the green-light to leave yet. A couple weeks ago, she told me that Boren sent out emails and notified last year's recipients that they'd be updated on their country-specific program status on April 16th (Friday). I'm assuming that's when we'll hear back at the earliest since I don't think it would make much sense for them to notify the new cohort about their program statuses before the older cohort. But maybe that's not the case - fingers crossed for tomorrow!!!?

Hi everyone! Nice meeting you all! I'm applying for the scholarship to study Mandarin in China. I initially started looking at these Boren forums to get an idea about when this year's notifications would be released. Glad to see that I'm not the only anxious person! ?
