disarmory Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 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. Thanks so much, all! It is so helpful to have people to talk to about this! Best of luck to everyone!
sam88 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Still waiting for an email from Jermaine... I'm guessing that's probably bad news.
Kerly_Cue Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Me too!! Basically having a panic attack. Do they notify by region or by country? (Sorry, I'm new to this board!!) I know, this is the most stressful day yet! I am also new to the board. I was recommended for a full grant in Tanzania. I haven't been notified yet, but it sounds as though everyone from the region will hear something today... It got so bad that I went to my supervisors and asked for work away from the computer. I'm now spending the day filing papers. Luckily I found out that there's going to be a new addition to our family (I'll be an aunt!) so I'm trying to keep my mind on that. 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. Man I hope so.
zambezijen Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 officially having a panic attack! fingers crossed everyone
RMD123 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 officially having a panic attack! fingers crossed everyone I second that....
RMD123 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Have any applicants to South Africa heard yet??? I've not heard anything, and as you might expect, my nerves are melting...
Pupster Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Hi, everyone! Long-time lurker, first-time poster. I was accepted for the full grant to Cameroon at 9:18 am, so there might be something to this alphabetical thing... kgba 1
rtlc06 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Carribean/C.America folks: Damn! Am I the only one who is suprised we haven't heard back yet? I thought we were supposed to be hearding last week. Anyone talk/mail Pamela lately? Ok, so the only explanation at this point is that they forgot about our region. That HAS to be it. Also, it seems like the majority of notifications come in the morning at the beginning of the East coast workday... Doesn't seem like too many come throughout the course of the day? Thoughts?

enkosi Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 It got so bad that I went to my supervisors and asked for work away from the computer. I'm now spending the day filing papers. Luckily I found out that there's going to be a new addition to our family (I'll be an aunt!) so I'm trying to keep my mind on that. Man I hope so. I'm also South Africa - apparently none of the South Africa fulbrihgts have been notified yet - so there is still hope. I have a lab report due in 3 hours I'm trying to finish up. Its so hard to concentrate.....
az2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 First time poster. Not much of a forum person. Email came from Jermaine Jones 11:47 EST Subject: Your Fulbright Candidacy (P) South Africa. ETA. Good luck everyone. kgba 1
Biz Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Ok, so the only explanation at this point is that they forgot about our region. That HAS to be it. They've also forgotten the Baltic states... omg... if the refresh button could break, it would have by now. And congrats to SSA folks! The wait is over! I've updated the sheet to reflect your notifications so far. Good luck to the rest of you! Edited April 25, 2012 by Biz kgba 1
kgba Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 I wish I could up-vote things more than once...congratulations to all of you SSA folks! But COME ON BALTICS! Biz, FullTimeAnxious and hungry 3
meli12 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Question - do you think this could mean good things for other non SSA countries who have not been notified? I don't understand the process enough to know if this could mean good news all around.
