kltree Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 So surreal! I'm in Hawaii so I just woke up to an email titled: Fulbright Application Status (P). I nearly peed my bed. And I opened it and a big Congratulations! Popped out at me. Oh the feels... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vPersie Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Likewise... Their decision-making is all totally separate though, right? I think so, but I'd also like to pretend that this means we'll hear soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torrid Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I got one.... Holy cheese on a cracker. I was awarded a full research grant to Indonesia. I think I might explode. That is awesome! I can't believe you found out so soon, but I'm very happy for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

there'sanappforthat Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Ugh. I hate this. At least the last time, we knew if one person had heard, we all would be hearing very, very soon. It could be today, it could be a month from today. I wonder if they send emails on the weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

there'sanappforthat Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 FPA just e-mailed recommended applicants at my school saying that FINAL RESULTS ARE COMING IN...so far just Indonesia... When you say, so far, just Indonesia, did your FPA tell you specifically, only Indonesia was replying, or, that's the only thing you had heard about. Sorry. I'm dying here.

jmv34 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 From my FPA: "Dear All, Surprise, surprise, the results have started to come in with Indonesia leading the way.

kltree Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Well, It was from "Fulbright U.S. Student Program" an email at iie.org and titled "Fulbright Application Status (P)" This is the gist of the email: Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that you have been selected for a Fulbright U.S. Student award for 2013-2014 to Indonesia. Shortly you will receive a letter from the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board with further details of the award. This letter will be sent to the mailing address listed in your application and noted above. This address will remain your corresponding address unless you notify us in writing, via email to your IIE Program Manager. In the meantime, be aware that this award is contingent upon your obtaining: medical clearance; a bachelor's degree, if graduating this year; official research clearance from the host country, where applicable; and required visas. So... time to get some visas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it somewhat odd that people I don't even know know I have been recommended. I find it kind of frustrating that someone I don't know, knows before me. But that's the way it goes, eh?
