Oliebollen Posted April 17, 2015 Author Posted April 17, 2015 P for Vietnam ETA! Congrats!! This is a little early for Vietnam compared to the past couple years, so maybe we can expect more East Asia soon!
catsushi Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Alternate for Moldova....not sure what's next :/
cml471 Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Awww catsushi, keep you head up. Something will happen, either Fulbright, or something else- you never know what opportunities could open up to you! catsushi 1
Dostoprimechatel'nosti Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 I just got the (A) for Moldova also...I have so many questions. Is there less funding?? Are there more applicants than we thought??

This is my first post on here. Is anyone else waiting to hear back from Bangladesh?? I applied as an ETA--anyone else for Bangladesh ETA or research? Best of luck to everyone! Hopefully we will all hear back soon. Bangladesh and the -stans are the only countries in South/Central Asia waiting to hear back. (I'm Central Asia.) Welcome to the club! Hurrah! cml471 1
aquarialily Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Ok I stupidly forgot that I wasn't supposed to submit the first page of the medical exam form. GAH! They won't rescind their offer over that stupidity, will they??

They won't rescind their offer over that stupidity, will they?? They'll probably just tell you to resend! I had to do that because of an issue with a signature. Edited April 20, 2015 by nsnotable
gokapi24 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Hi friends, Another Jordan applicant here. Still haven't heard and was looking around the internet for people to commiserate with. I just found this forum and you all seem lovely, and the information has been really helpful, so thank you all Aside from the general terror of still not having heard, the dates for orientation sent out in that strange save the date email align almost precisely with my final exam week and graduation from undergrad. Does anyone know how common it is to get exemptions from orientation? I know it's ceremonial, but I'd really hate to miss graduation, let alone reschedule exams.
Photogeographic Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Alternate for Moldova....not sure what's next :/ awww I hope you get moved up ! Crossing my fingers for you
free2move Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Hey everyone! I haven't seen anyone writing about Albania on here, but if there are any Principle Candidates for Albania out there, I'd love to know whether you plan to accept. I found out that I'm an Alternate a few days ago and it would be really helpful to know if there is any chance of getting bumped up to Principle Candidate. Congrats to all the Principle Candidates! Hey! I'm a selected for Albania, but I'll be going! I have no idea about the other slots though!
Oliebollen Posted April 20, 2015 Author Posted April 20, 2015 I'm probably gonna get a heart attack if I get the save the date before the final notication, haha. Anyone else still waiting on it?
wanderer0510 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Have any Middle East applicants (except Morocco and Israel) heard anything, particularly for Bahrain/the Gulf, or have any indication of when we may hear? Still waiting anxiously.... YYC1993 1
YYC1993 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Have any Middle East applicants (except Morocco and Israel) heard anything, particularly for Bahrain/the Gulf, or have any indication of when we may hear? Still waiting anxiously.... Still waiting on Bahrain ETA... YYC1993 1
TotheBalkans Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 What about European applicants? It's starting to seem like Montenegro and maybe Serbia & Kosovo are the only ones left. Anybody else still waiting?
jadesg1 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Looks like this is the day where everyone still waiting on the Middle East finally cracks and looks for answers... haha. YYC1993 and taiwantroubadour 2
ar15bdesh Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Applied for Bangladesh research, still waiting. I was so sure we were going to hear this week... Hopefully this week is the week! I don't think I can wait until May....
remenis Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 What about European applicants? It's starting to seem like Montenegro and maybe Serbia & Kosovo are the only ones left. Anybody else still waiting? I'm still waiting on Spain (research).
kyl19 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 I just turned in my thesis, I have one joke final tomorrow, and I graduate this Sunday. However, the only thing preventing me from being truly excited is the fact that we still haven't heard about Taiwan ETA's.... aslkdjgal;skjdg;lakjdsgl; rockrmoose 1
ev108 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Have any of the Taiwan research ppl on here received add'l information about the terms and other stuff? It's kind of weird that it has taken so long, right? For others... does anyone have an idea of how long the gap tends to be between receiving your first email informing of your acceptance and receiving the more detailed paperwork? I thought the waiting game was over... now I'm starting to get anxious about how I'll be able to enroll at my host institution in time. rockrmoose 1

However, the only thing preventing me from being truly excited is the fact that we still haven't heard about Taiwan ETA's.... aslkdjgal;skjdg;lakjdsgl; I give up. Found two programs to apply to in the meantime, because I've accepted defeat. Who am I kidding, I'm still constantly checking this forum and my email. I JUST WANT TO KNOW. I wonder why they're taking so long this year, really hope it doesnt take until May... TotheBalkans and Xiaobai 2
TotheBalkans Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 I'm still waiting on Spain (research). remenis, I'm sorry to hear you're still waiting, but it is nice not to be here alone. I hope your answer comes soon! cml471 1

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but from what I've gathered the orientation is mandatory. If you don't attend they could rescind your grant. Maybe in special cases they might make an exception? I would email the program manager for your region and ask; that would probably be the best way to get a complete answer! Edited April 21, 2015 by nsnotable cml471 1

I thought the waiting game was over... now I'm starting to get anxious about how I'll be able to enroll at my host institution in time. It was about a week between getting my acceptance email from IIE and hearing from the commission in Indonesia. For some reason it also took a few extra days for the email to show up in my school email (I got it the day of in my personal email account), so it could be that due to the firewalls, etc. If you're ultra worried, I would suggest emailing the program manager at IIE.
