dyne Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I'm curious if anyone applied for the Casten Family Foundation Fulbright Grant in Italy?
lavoce Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I was rejected. I kind of expected it, but I feel way worse than I expected... all that work for nothing... and I've made such a huge deal of it to my close friends/family... Sigh.

Email started with....."I am pleased to inform you that the National Screening Committee of the Institute of International Education (IIE) has recommended...."!!!!

jahanzlik Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 It was hard to hold it in , sitting here in my little cubicle! I also awkwardly hugged three people, 2 were okay with it. One got scared, lol.

Heck yeah that's a silver lining! I put my graduation back to study in Germany for a semester, and I would do it again in a HEARTBEAT!! It was so worth it! Keep trying!
Here'sHopin'! Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Nope! Me neither! I'll be signing off now! I don't know if I'll reattempt in the near future.

It was wonderful chatting with all of you while we waited for this news! Edited January 18, 2013 by Here'sHopin'!

Anthro14 Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Got my email! I was recommended to the next round. YAYyyayaya! Congrats all!
lavoce Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Bleh I know this is conceited/full of myself. But I wish I could know why I was rejected. I had a really really strong application. (I thought?) I applied for voice, and I just won a huge national vocal competition (which I would say is more competitive, at least in the vocal field, than the Fulbright...) I also studied German for a number of years, have done summer programs in Germany, and come from a top university and a top masters program. My recommendations were overflowing with praise. I had an affiliation letter from a top conservatory. I know they say you can't ask, but I wish I knew so I could have a better application next year...

That work is not for nothing though, if you reapply, I PROMISE it will be a huge help your next time around. I made a huge deal to my friends and family the first time I applied too. Trying to keep it a little more hush hush this time, I remember how hard it was to tell people. Hang in there!! And try again, gosh darn it!
Anthro14 Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 I was recommended for a full grant to India btw

Because, I want to know if it is because of my profile, or because of my project. Cosi e la vita...
