Waiting to hear back on a Full grant to Poland.....
I knew I should never have started reading this forum.... it has increased my paranoia tenfold. I have a question that is now nagging me.... My host letter is from a professor at a university on university letterhead. I asked my FPA if I needed to contact the university itself and set something up since the Fulbright country summary states that "Candidates for research must have a formal institutional affiliation, and may be required to attend classes." He explained that since I'm not applying for a program at the university and am doing research in a humanities field, it means that I'm pretty much on my own and wouldn't really need it (i.e. Don't worry about it). Since I got the recommendation e-mail, I've become increasingly paranoid that they would reject me because I've only made contact with a professor at the university and not contacted the university itself for some support.
Am I just paranoid, or should I be worried to some extent?
Congratulations to everyone who has heard back so far. Whether you made it or not, you made it through a lot of hurdles.
