Hey guys, I'm a fulbrighter from New Zealand and will probably end up at Princeton (although Caltech is still a possibility). My friend who received a Fulbright last year went on a camp in Miami for a couple of days when she got to the States, so perhaps they're doing a similar thing this year? Fingers crossed! I know we definitely have orientation here in June as well though.
I think the home residency requirement can be pretty relaxed as I don't know anyone who has actually returned to New Zealand! They all seem to go to Europe or Australia for a few years before returning to the States. I really hope I can do something like that!
