I don't think every country gets to nominate a alternate; I know that mine wouldn't because I'm the only one that applied and I had to have special permission to do that. I think it's going to be those that Fulbright wants to give a grant to but at the moment can't budget it.
My email came @ 10:44 (Eastern) from Jermaine Jones, Subject: Your Fulbright Candidacy (P)
Maybe it goes in alphabetical order for regions?
Congo - 10:34
Kenya - 10:44
I'm sure the other emails will come out today, just hold on a bit longer.
