cruxclaire Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Any chance Germany will notify today? I created an account here because the wait is giving me so much anxiety.

Expand It seems like Germany prefers Tuesdays and Thursdays, but it also seems like they usually wait til the last week of March or first week of April, which makes me even more nervous because my future is really uncertain at the moment. I applied for the ETA. How about you? I'm on mobile and can't see that little sidebar thing where people post what they applied for.

ld4977 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Hi everyone! I just made an account today, as I found out this morning I was selected as a finalist for the Netherlands! I applied to a special degree-seeking program at the VU University of Amsterdam, where I'll be studying art history. Any other NL finalists or art history applicants? And thanks to everyone on this board for addressing so many of the things I had questions about (i.e. State Dept. craziness) -- I've been poking around here for awhile, but never felt I had anything to add....until now! Hope everyone else hears good news soon! Jess2323, yoh_rrg, Dilemma1 and 2 others 5

lizie.johnson Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Not selected for research to Israel ? I'm obviously super disappointed, but luckily I have a backup plan that I'm also thrilled with (fully funded PhD program at UNC). Thanks to everyone in this forum for being such a fabulous emotional support system! I'll still be rooting for each and every one of you!! CoolOwl, sat0ri, lightaheadi and 1 other 4
