As for interviews I can't say. Although I am assuming its only specific countries still and not all. Thanks so much for clarifying! That's what I assumed, but I wasn't positive. Sending good vibes to everyone tonight leading into tomorrow. Photogeographic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah!!! Yay! I just received the same email from my adviser! I got the impression last year that Fulbright advisers were not permitted by to give information on notifications. So I wonder if the Fulbright program is trying to be more transparent in the selection process? Anyway, I am very excited that we will be finding out tomorrow. Best of luck to everyone!

Is this changing this year? You are right that only certain countries do interviews, usually the countries with strict language requirements. But I know from a conversation with my adviser last year that more and more countries are choosing to incorporate interviews into their selection process each year. I think he said that last year there were 3 countries that conducted interviews for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oco25721 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Good luck everyone! Unfortunately I don't think this applies to Clinton Fulbright applicants. Last year they also found out later (Jan. 28th vs. 16th) and I'm expecting the same to happen this year (but still secretly holding out hope we'll find out today too!)

I have my email account open in another tab, and when I glanced at the tab it had a (1) next to it, and I immediately freaked out. It was an email from my school hitting me up for donations. Definitely not the right time. Dostoprimechatel'nosti 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianli888@gmail.com Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I had several dreams last night in quick succession, all related to getting accepted/rejected by Fulbright (by email, by letter, etc).

gtakaoka Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Am I crazy, or is it 12:45pm central time now with no response? I have been lurking on the MFA art forums so I have not followed/participated in this thread, but I applied for a Partner Award in the UK in conjunction with University College London. I am prepared for an outright rejection because I am sure that's a widely applied-to award, but you can't win if you don't play! I wonder if the response timeline will be the same...anyways, best wishes to you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budSimpson Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I too have been lurking! Just wanted to share what a friend of mine (a successful 2014-15 Fulbright recipient) told me in regards to initial notifications. "And no matter what the outcome, you have already learned so much about yourself, your passions, and your goals just by surviving the bloody application process!" Wishing everyone the best!

cc2016sr2017 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 What are people thinking for the notification? I'm surprised we haven't heard by now, but I'm probably being impatient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it's tempting for them to wait till the last second of the work day to hit the send button and then get out as fast as possible.

ItsStumpy Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hmm, so apparently my school's adviser mentioned (a few weeks ago) that we'll hear about finalist selection in late January. That may have been old news though, as people here have reported otherwise. Either way, I hope decisions come out soon and that we all get recommended!
