Horb Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Pro tip: don't watch Great British Bake Off whilst waiting. You become nervous for them and yourself. aheather, Lab6214 and LibbyCreek 3
sat0ri Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 This is so exciting as a spectator! I'm really pulling for you guys, especially those of you I remember from last cycle LibbyCreek, iDance, Dilemma1 and 1 other 4

tommec Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Realistically speaking, how many more countries can they get through in one afternoon? THIS IS SO EXCITING aheather and Jess2323 2
LibbyCreek Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I am rewriting my nonprofit's outdated bylaws right now and have to say this is REALLY distracting!

Tera Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 First time applying to Fulbright, was already honored to be a semi-finalist my first time around. Hoping I hear the results in a few weeks! To everyone else who have heard already, congrats!!

That's what I'm up to! I love it, though, GBBO is such an anxiety reducer for me because everyone tries their best and nobody scolds them too harshly if they don't succeed. I've been in mourning about Malaysia informing so late (theoretically I still have a MONTH), but if everything is going through ridiculously early, maybe I'll get lucky.... I did just got a full round of rejections from grad schools, so I could use the good news and some solid plans!

I'm sort of unemployed and homeless post-August, so I'd really like to start finding a job and a home if I'm not packing up and moving across the world. I'm sure many of us are in similar boats!
Dobrih Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Hey everyone! This is my first post here. I'm a Czech Republic ETA semi-finalist. I was so worried that the notifications were going to come out late, but I guess all the changes at the State Department have left people there with less to do and more time to get those notifications out. It's almost certianly bad for the country, but it's good for us, so I am conflicted on how I should feel haha. Lab6214 1

Congrats to those of you who have already heard good news! YES. Between LSAT and this I've been reduced to a puddle of nerves this year.
catsbloom Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Well, it's past 5 on the east coast. I guess we're stuck waiting another week? Jess2323 1
Vegan Burrito Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I'm waiting for news on the Spain ETA grant, which is usually announced the same day as the research grant, but so far hasn't (even though research has!!). I'm wondering: are decisions ever announced over the weekend? Also, are they only announced during NY government hours (9-5)? Meaning, should I tune out until Monday, or could this happen anytime??

ciaochristine Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Italy just notified, so they are sending out notifications past 5:00. Unfortunately, I was not selected. Looks like I'm heading to law school this fall. @kgiombetti - hopefully you have good news?!
