Heres to hoping we wake up to acceptance e-mails tomorrow!

I would but I have e-mailed them way too many times...

And as for not hearing by now... I feel as if it's likely that we're alternates.

I think some brave soul should e-mail them about the Austrian USTA and ask why some of us haven't heard. Their office is open today for another 2 1/2 hours. Someone willing to call or e-mail them?

hello German ETAs... I was wondering if those of you that were offered the assistantship would mind sending me your essays or posting them here. I felt that I was a strong candidate (and I still feel that I am) but was rejected. I assume it was due to the essay I sent to Fulbright Germany. I am looking to apply again for 2013-2014 and was hoping to improve the quality of my application! Thank you so much in advance

to Austrian USTAs-has anyone not heard, or know of anyone who hasn't heard? Is the fact that I haven't heard by now a bad sign, meaning that I am an alternate or have been rejected? Or is it possible that they haven't sent out all of the acceptance letters yet?

Thanks again, Molly

Hi Germany ETA applicants. I received a response from Theresa. She said we will hear of our status early next week. Here's to hoping we hear something on Monday!

I really have a feeling some notifications are going to go out tonight. Isn't Thursday kind of the typical day for that?

Come on Fulbright...Molly wants to know if she's going to Deutschland or not!

Hello Fellow Germany ETA applications. I e-mailed Ms. Doble, who conveniently is "on leave." She left the e-mail address of another contact, whom I contacted. My question "When will we hear about the Germany ETA?" Her answer.... "Relatively soon."

What does that mean??? Argh!!!

@ lkjl2007- I ended up writing my proposal in German and turning in the Lebenslauf in German as well. Hoping that will give me some sort of edge. I'd really love to teach English in Salzburg. What city did you request?

Anyone else checking their e-mail incessently today? I sort of hoped they'd send us the results today *blush*. Dare to dream... I won't be able to sleep until I know whether or not I made it to the next round! Good or bad news....it doesn't matter! I'd rather know now.

If anyone has any updates please post them here for the rest of us! Thanks!

If I don't get it I will start looking into other options.

I guess I should share my grad school story with everyone. After graduating from undergrad with a degree in German in spring of 2010, I was sure I wanted to go to Germany in the fall and go to grad school there. Unfortunately, I did not receive a full-year scholarship from DAAD. When I got the rejection letter, I was more than crushed. However, around the same time I received an acceptance letter from a school in Ohio-I received a full scholarship, and the first year of the program was in Austria!

Everything works out for the best

I just wanted to inform everyone that I e-mailed the woman in charge of the German ETA (which I have applied for), and she stated that we should hear from them next week. So that's a good sign, right? Just wishing they had told us today, so we didn't have to sit around this weekend having panic attacks!
