arguewithatree Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Hey all! Just got notified that I'm a Kosovo alternate for Clinton-Fulbright. This has been such a bizarre process and I know it's not over yet. Happy to have made it this far though! sat0ri and Dostoprimechatel'nosti 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relampagos Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 So I received my Grant Authorization document today and while I am grateful for the opportunity in general, I was placed in my least desirable city in my grant country. Does anyone know if these locations are set in stone or if there can be some negotiation with the grant commission in your country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternates, keep crossing those fingers! Congratulations! Did they notify you by email or phone call? I am also an alternate and a little worried about staying in contact with Fulbright as I'll be travelling in India for the next four months.

Fulbright is not the one you want to decline if you are trying to decide between multiple. He did the Fulbright program himself when he was a grad student (history). Well I got it this year again, so others in my position please don't be discouraged busybee and Dostoprimechatel'nosti 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did it take to receive your grant details after sending in your initial forms (medical clearance/terms & conditions form)? I got the grant details 3 weeks after I got the initial acceptance email- but it sounded like a lot of countries got theirs faster. The grant details come from the commission, so it's not tied to the medical clearance and terms forms. You can get them both at the same time!

wildchartermage Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 has anyone received the Grant Authorization document yet? I'm a Fulbright finalist for Italy and I still haven't seen anything about Grant Authorization document yet (but all of the terms&conditions, medical report, etc, are completed).
