FLAS(Foreign Language Area Studies) Alternate Chances

[techenv204]

Hello,

I was selected as an Alternate for summer FLAS. 

Does anyone have any experience with being selected as an alternate?

I am an alternate as well. I've heard that there are years where every alternate on the list is brought in, but then other years where the alternates list never budges. There's no telling if the list will budge for either of us this year because there really isn't any rhyme or reason. All we can do is hope that some acceptees decline the program before April 15th ?

@serpentstone I wish the best of luck. Have you heard of any updates on your final decision? My decision email noted that it would be after April 8 but I haven't heard anything. I hope you get it!
