there'sanappforthat Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 That's what I am talking about! They're about the only two we (on this forum) are waiting for, aren't they?! tend0n 1
CrystalDee Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Switzerland too! And our friends from Central America are still hanging on. IIE's work is far from over. Edited April 30, 2013 by CrystalDee
rtlc06 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 They're about the only two we (on this forum) are waiting for, aren't they?! Nope! Turkey, Vietnam, Central America/Caribbean, Middle East/North Africa... We're all still waiting! I'm sure there's others I'm missing too...
latviaeta Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Nope! Turkey, Vietnam, Central America/Caribbean, Middle East/North Africa... We're all still waiting! I'm sure there's others I'm missing too... don't forget Latviaaaaaa :'( And tomorrow's a public holiday there so if I don't hear today it will definitely not be til Thursday, probably... tend0n 1
reb Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Morocco please! I'm silent, but almost always here... waiting... with ever-shrinking patience... palindromee 1
CrystalDee Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 don't forget Latviaaaaaa :'( And tomorrow's a public holiday there so if I don't hear today it will definitely not be til Thursday, probably... And we hardly ever get news on Thursday! One of the girls in Estonia just told me she was out of school tomorrow. I wonder if they are having a holiday also.
rpugh2 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 morocco as well......I long for the covered souk of Fez
rtlc06 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 don't forget Latviaaaaaa :'( And tomorrow's a public holiday there so if I don't hear today it will definitely not be til Thursday, probably... Yup! Latvia too! Bummer about the holiday... Hopefully you'll hear today... If not - the good news is that we'll only be in limbo until May 15th. It sounds like forever, but it's really only 2 more weeks, which after a year of preparing for this, really isn't too too awful...
there'sanappforthat Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Lord, they really need to get a move on..
AylaM Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 And we hardly ever get news on Thursday! One of the girls in Estonia just told me she was out of school tomorrow. I wonder if they are having a holiday also. In Lebanon there is Holiday Wednesday, Friday and next Monday :s I have noticed on the statistics link http://us.fulbrighto....org/statistics that Lebanon is missing, although last year grants were awarded .... and this year grants are being awarded too! This same website mentions that no grants are available to Lebanon for years 2014-2015, although Amideast Lebanon started promoting for fulbright 2014-2015 ....
dios Achilleus Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 They're about the only two we (on this forum) are waiting for, aren't they?! Hey! Half of Norway is still waiting too!
rtlc06 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Luxembourg? I don't think they've heard... I could be wrong though...
CrystalDee Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Hey! Half of Norway is still waiting too! I was thinking you guys were still in limbo also. But fear not, Congress voted to clear up the air traffic portion of the sequester. Lol!
scoco Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 I'm de-lurking to say what up fellow Morocco people! There's a lot of us now... I guess we were all hoping to hear last week. Also, thanks to everyone on this forum for making me feel like less of a crazy person : ) I haven't commented until now, but its nice knowing other people are stressing over this too!
reb Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 morocco as well......I long for the covered souk of Fez rpugh2, you'll be in Fes? Me too! Are you a research grant applicant? What's your research?
CrystalDee Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Yup! Latvia too! Bummer about the holiday... Hopefully you'll hear today... If not - the good news is that we'll only be in limbo until May 15th. It sounds like forever, but it's really only 2 more weeks, which after a year of preparing for this, really isn't too too awful... Yep, holiday in Estonia too. It is a holiday for workers.
Torrid Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Yep, holiday in Estonia too. It is a holiday for workers. I think May Day is a holiday pretty much everywhere except the US
icf312 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Hey everyone, I haven't posted much on this board before but I've been following for a while. Anyways, I've been an alternate for almost 2 months now and still haven't received any notification. Therefore, I should probably assume that I'm not going to get the grant, right? I have heard of people being promoted last minute in previous years but I'm starting to loose faith.
CrystalDee Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 I think May Day is a holiday pretty much everywhere except the US Of course! This is why my Estonian friends say I live in "Wonderland" because everything is so different. And not always in a good way!
AnxiousDad Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 You Need a Vacation… From Your Problems! Just keep telling yourself I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful CrystalDee 1
rpugh2 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 rpugh2, you'll be in Fes? Me too! Are you a research grant applicant? What's your research? Agriculture in rural Morocco....but hopefully starting language instruction in Fez at ALIF. I spent a year in Fez on a Boren scholarship a couple of years ago.
CrystalDee Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Armenia's still here too! I thought for some strange reason you found out a couple of weeks ago.
MuscaTiger Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 I don't understand how countries that have only 5-20 applications take forever with deciding on their selections. Harvard receives over 30,000 applications per year and gets decisions out in about 3 months. Getting so frustrated here with each day that passes since my school is getting frustrated with me that I haven't made a final decision with my future plans. there'sanappforthat and zhaskin 2
