Mateng Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 This thread isn't dated for 2019/2020 but since it only has 2 comments could we make this the thread for 2019/2020? I'll be sending in my application soon. Who else is applying this year? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mateng Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Is this your first time applying? I've applied to study abroad programs before but this is the first one that seemed to prefer applicants with more experience in the language, country, academics etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem to want people who have are fairly dedicated to the language and will use it somehow in their future. The profile of past recipients is pretty intimidating. Getting into the language school its self is pretty intimidating... What language are you applying for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkhk Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Late but I applied for Chinese! Does anyone know why finding information about this fellowship seems so difficult? It seems very competitive but I couldn't really find any sample essays, blogs of people who've done it, advice/tips, etc. Other language study scholarships I've applied for in the past, I've always been able to find information but there is barely anything there with this one ? But this is also my first time applying and seeing that I've only been out of school less than a year, I don't know how much of a chance I have haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, not only are the past recipients intimidating but there's so few of them ? @hkhk same! I couldn't find information anywhere at all. I looked at the confirmation email, and this Friday they meet to review applications so by the end of next week we hear about first round results...... ?

kenton Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) I received my email last week on Friday that I did not make it. Maybe it is different per language? Edited February 21, 2019 by kenton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mateng Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 @kenton sorry to hear that! Will you try again next year? Yeah it looks like it's different per language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mateng Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 One of my classmates got an email yesterday saying he got an interview. I haven't received anything so i'm a bit worried but for now I guess no news is good news since I haven't gotten a rejection yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I vaguely remember the email saying if you don't hear back by a certain time, you probably didn't get it ? but oh well, there's always another year to apply after I get some more experience first! Edit: Alright just reread the email and it is different by language. The finalist selection committee for Chinese doesn't meet until March so the wait continues for me ?

hkhk Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Don't know if this thread is active anymore, but putting on here that I had an interview for the Chinese fellowship on Monday and was notified on Tuesday that I was being offered the fellowship. For any future applicants who are searching the web for info and can't find anything, contact me on here and I would be happy to answer any questions about the application process and whatever comes next!

I'm open to other options though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
