rugby Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Has anyone applied for a Fulbright-Hays? I applied for a doctoral dissertation research abroad grant to India, and am anxiously awaiting a reply. I know they are extremely competitive so not getting my hopes up, but would be nice to know that other people are anxious as well!
rugby Posted April 13, 2009 Author Posted April 13, 2009 Good to know! I am sort of confused about the notification process, especially since the website says "regret letters" go out to institutions in february and march. As far as I know, however, my university hasn't received word on awards. I am hoping decisions come down relatively soon though, time to start planning the next year of my life...
rugby Posted April 17, 2009 Author Posted April 17, 2009 nicknick - I put a call in to Amy Wilson at the DOE and left a message, asking for some idea of when decisions will come down for the Fulbright-Hays. I'll let you know when I hear from her...
sunbean8 Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 I know one person who was informed that they got a Fulbright-Hays (for Brazil) two days ago. Not sure if F-H, like IIE, is country-specific in reply times or not, though, and no one else I know has received word. Anyway, I am also anxious, and waiting to hear on both Fulbright-Hays and Fulbright IIE, both for India.
rugby Posted April 20, 2009 Author Posted April 20, 2009 Looks like decisions are out. I have an unofficial rejection but haven't seen anything in writing yet. Too bad, will be interested to see the reviewer's comments! Time for me to start getting really anxious about the Fulbright!
nicknick Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 I did not think that the Fulbright Hays was country specific...not sure, though. My school hasn't heard as of today (NY area).
shaoqian Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Has anyone hear from FH? It looks like they are already posting results: http://ucsdgraduatefunding.wordpress.co ... ys-update/ I have not received any notice yet. anxious waiting.....

As best I understand it from my Fulbright adviser, if you haven't received notification of principle or alternate status, you are essentially out of the running. I am not sure why they would do the notification in that order, but I've been told that I should assume I am not receiving a grant...
shaoqian Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Thank you! Rugby. I guess that I should assume that I didn't get a grant eitehr. This notification order is so strange, different from what they state on their official website "regret letters will be sent in Feb and March"
