I got my letter yesterday too...and I'm in the same boat, alternate! It feels like a rejection, and at this point I just need to move on (though if I'm offered a grant I'll take it!)

ETA! I haven't seen any other ETA applicants to Norway on the board...congrats on your alternate status!

I see...sorry I thought you were a fellow Norway applicant! Good luck on your application to Italy!

Did you apply for a full or ETA grant to Norway?

i'm SO frustrated too. Yesterday I went home between classes to check the mail, and when I didn't get anything I got really frustrated. I was in a pretty bad mood about it all day yesterday! I'm really distracted by it too (seems to be all I can think about). All I want is the yes/no answer so I can plan accordingly...the waiting game is driving me crazy.

I haven't heard yet either...though I applied for an ETA to Norway, not a full grant. But like you, the email thing is freaking me out...I hope we all hear soon!

I'm a Norway ETA finalist and I'm from Washington too!! Unfortunately it means it'll take anything from NY 4-5 days to get here...though that doesn't stop me from stalking the mail man.

The waiting game is literally driving me crazy. I'm an anxiety-ridden mess! It doesn't help that I just had two cups of coffee... And of course, I live in Washington State so my letter will take a few days to get here once it's sent out. Approximately three more hours until the mail comes.

I applied to Norway. I know that depending on the country, finalists are sometimes contacted for an interview. However, I was mainly surprised that I was contacted by them about four days before getting the official email!

I actually applied for an ETA...

Anyone have an interview yet? I actually found out I was a finalist BEFORE I got the email from Fulbright. I got this random email saying "congratulations for making it this far in the competition. We would like to schedule an interview with you on the 27th." Did this happen to anyone else? I'm hoping it means they'll be making a decision fairly early!
