oh forget it. why bother with a school with such a problem? why waste your time and money on this. Look for something better.
-
1. i wish you luck!
2. All this money for an MA program?!!! way more expensive than a decent PhD!!
3. I hate loans and suggest that you try to manage with what you have .. cover room and board and live like a student < 500 a month for food and etc .. should be fine ..
4. Are not you getting any money from the school for the teaching you'r doing? wont this help pay some living expenses while the loans you have already been approved for cover your education expenses??

So I sent the program I finally ended up choosing to attend an email yesterday morning confirming that I decided to go there, but I never received a reply. I was thinking I would get some kind of a welcome or congratulations or next steps or at the very least an "ok we won't give away your spot" email. Is this at all normal? Should I send a follow up? It just seems off to me, but I don't want them to think I'm crying for attention.
1. Congrattttttts! You got accepted at all the schools you applied for! This is unusual = you must be outstanding!
2. It is a Friday, dear, so perhaps they got SO many e-mails and decided to reply next week.
3. you might want to send another e-mail if you do not get any response by Monday or Tuesday!
4. Celebrate your success and be happy!

Unfortunately, the status will never change to reviewed. Once the application form is closed, the online status does not change. <br style=line-height: 1.2em; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; "><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; ">Notification of awards will be mailed to all applicants on, April 15, 2011 via regular mail. We will also post notifications on our website that day. <br style=line-height: 1.2em; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; "><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; ">www.aauw.org

5 days to go!
Good luck everybody!!!!

if you know of any, please lemme know!!!

That's what I did too..
Come on! I am joking here! Don't you have irrational fears like that? Such as that your transcript got dropped under someone's desk and never made it's way to your file??
8 more days!
haha! not this kind of fears!
mine are more like: i am sure someone read my application and thought "she is fine she does not need a fellowship to survive"!!!
yeah .. almost 7 days left!
gash, it is next weeeeeeeek!!!!!
-
no- the status pertains only to their receipt of recommendations. if you take a look at the status page, you will notice that they say "we are unable to confirm status of supporting documents" .. that's why i am being irrational. we will never know whether we got rejected because a piece of our app was missing or because we didn't make it.
well, then you should have used Fedex--tracking your documents. This is what I did and I know they got all my documents!
-
I don't know if this is happening to any of you - but I am not able to access my application form!
i am able. has not changed since december though.
-
Exactly! Everything will be posted online on the 15th.
I do not think I am gonna get it though ... more than 1250 competing over 40 fellowships ..
ahh!!!
-
sorry
if they have not received your trans..., your status will be incomplete.
check it.
-
9 days for the results!!!
-
I would not pay that much or burden myself with loans like that. Wait for the remaining apps and see if you get any funding!!
-
Interesting, how come some applicants said their status did change from recommended to reviewed?
Thanks for the info!
I guess, I will stop checking the status, the shock will be easier to contain if I do not get it, which is most likely, last year around 1200 applied for it and only around 40 got it, so ...
-
I did too. Don't see it as likely at all because my profile isn't nearly as good as the past winners.
How do they notify the winners? Do finalists get interviewed?
Ahhhh still waiting and checking many times daily ... i really need to get it!!!
Wish my status will change to Reviewed though ..
do not lose hope, you never know ...
Yea, i guess they get interviewed .. and they post one paragraph or two about them with their photo online ..
April 15 is soon .. count down ..
wish you the best of luck ..

Jordan is good but not in Amman the capital where people hardly speak Arabic or know Arabic.
Go to Irbid. The second biggest city. The university is Yarmouk University. It has a great program through Virginia U. and another one cheaper you can read about through the MESA website; around $ 4100 for ticket, classes and apartment which will go higher next year because it is simply too cheap!!
Syria is the best though. They know Arabic well.
Good luck.

on campus they can work in any field .. like in the library or cafeteria ..
-
research assistant ... pays like 15 an hour .. taxed .. and should not exceed 10 hours a week i guess .. ONLY in Summer and breaks!! Not too bad!
-
i think you can do that .. but it wont cover all the room and board fees .. you need another source of funding ..
-
i did and cannot wait to hear back! counting days ..
my status says recommended since december and april seems so far!!!
summer before grad school

take it easy. you will have no time to take it easy once in grad school. However, you can do a part time job or anything you enjoy doing .. you might want to check the classes you are gonna take and read some stuff slowly .. no rush no nothing .. take it easy and enjoy the summer .. congrats on your admission!
