pelevinfan Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Did you check your spam folder? Maybe they're still sending them out. I wouldn't get too down yet - there's still hope! Thanks, Kellie79, but I did check my spam folder. Nothing. Maybe still hope, but it is slim at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katelynnlindsey Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Congratulations! What time did you get the email, if you don't mind my asking? 4:23 pm Looks like they didn't come out ALL at once. Don't get too down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machowdh Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 also...this has probably already been answered, but does anyone know how many alternates they appoint? is there a ranking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelevinfan Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Wahoo! Congrats! I heard Russia hopefuls heard this evening! Haha, only the successful Russia hopefuls! Guess they ran out of time to send the rejected/alternate emails... Had a good cry about it, and moved on. Grad school, here I come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETA-Russia Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Accepted ETA to Russia! The long wait was worth the results. Good luck to all of you still waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biz Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Just an update/FYI: I don't know if anyone noticed but there was another Alternate promoted to Accepted today (Sheelal90, Sri Lanka). I'm a little thrown off by the dates... I think Sri Lanka actually heard on 3/25/2012. So that puts the time from first notification to promotion at just over two weeks. And LLJKedge (who was promoted for Germany) heard just over three weeks after he got his alternate notification. It's very promising to see people being promoted to accepted. And it seems that it's happening relatively quickly. Good luck to all alternates! Kexin Renlei, Biz and kgba 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kshorrock Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Thanks so much for checking for all of us who are anxiously awaiting... I dont' know how to interpret that either --- Does that mean THIS week... or NEXT week... or just sometime in the next seven days?! AHHHHH this date last year they found out...reading into what Rachel said, I feel like we'll be getting news next week. Do you think we'll get an e-mail or just a letter?!

Anamaria02 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 me too! i wonder how many people applied since there are only ten spots available. i don't think many people applied for the eta in previous years. ES90 - I don't know if by 2011 they mean the current ETA's - or the number who applied for 2012-2013, but this sheet lists stats. on all of the countries. If you look at the ETA stats, find Morocco, it says that 80 people applied for 10 spots. --Again, it is not clear to me if they are referring to this year or to last year.

If you look at the ETA stats, find Morocco, it says that 80 people applied for 10 spots. --Again, it is not clear to me if they are referring to this year or to last year. They're referring to last year since the publication refers to Fulbright meetings held in the summer/fall of 2011. So last year 80 applicants applied for however many spots were available (that info isn't easy to find for Morocco ETA, seems to stop at 2010-2011, 12 grants). So between 10 and 12 probably?...

That's so sweet of you! One thing I have learned here in eastern Europe though, is that life moves on regardless. Even when things don't work out, which they often don't.. other opportunities will guide us forward. Good luck to you-- I'm sure you'll get an e-mail soon. And if you don't, make a call-- there could be a technical glitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So between 10 and 12 probably?... so that is the thing that confuses me because last year they took in some of the people who applied to egypt eta program after the protests started happening there...i wish they'd let us know how many people applied since perhaps the arab spring discouraged people? i don't know.

boxoatoc Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Question: If Bangladesh is part of the Central Asia regional grant (including Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, and theoretically Uzbekistan), why would Bangladesh find out before the other countries in the region? It happened last year too. I'm not complaining, just curious. Congrats to everyone chosen or still in the running (alternates) for awards, and condolences for those who were not chosen this time.

lm05anti Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Maybe Belarus, Armenia, Moldova etc. will hear on Friday the 13th... although in this case it will turn into a lucky day for some! Well done for all the accepted Russian ETAs and Grants! So excited for you all! lg702 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartbri Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Has anyone heard news on when Turkey ETAs will hear back? A friend from last year (2011-2012) heard back in JUNE! and a friend from the 2010-2011 year heard back May 14th. I really hope it is not going to be that late this year. But, then again, there is such thing as Turkish time, which is ALWAYS late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
