just_another_applicant Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I figured I'd start this thread for all of us who shot our shots! How is everyone feeling about their applications? Is this your first time applying? Let's discuss! This is my first time applying and I'm not sure what to expect. While I feel pretty good about my application, the <2% success rate is not very reassuring. I'm guessing there's probably a lot of luck involved in getting to the finalist round.

JarJarRuss Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Applied as well. Started an application last year but didn't go through with it. This year, I actually finished. Thought my app was ok but the fellowship itself is pretty selective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw from previous years that they will call finalists before sending out all the rejections. Since we're supposed to get a decision email by the 14th, maybe the calls will be going out the beginning of this week. This is all just wild speculation.

aa4444 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I received a phone call on Thursday notifying me that I was selected as a finalist. Finalist most likely were contacted by now since I had to upload some additional documentation by today.

I wish you all the best with your interview! I can't say I'm too disappointed that I'm probably out of the running. I always knew this was a longshot.
