hflynn927 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Hey everyone, I've just realized that I've neglected to upload my signed terms and conditions on time. It was due four days ago. Anyone have any idea if this would impact my eligibility? I'm uploading it immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahsSeoulSearch Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 22 hours ago, SarahsSeoulSearch said: Hi, I just got an email from Fulbright China about applying for the Chinese Government Scholarship... WHAT DOES THIS LAST SENTENCE MEAN (I highlighted it and whatnot, not them) Did all the semifinalists get this email???? Does this mean anything at all or am I just looking into it too much?? This wait is seriously driving me insane. My graduation date depends on whether or not I get this award (I will graduate in the summer if I get it and next semester if I don't) so this whole process has been so nerve wracking. Dear China Fulbright Candidate, ~~~ CGS info blah blah blah ~~~~ IIE cannot guarantee that you will be offered a Fulbright award and/or a CGS tuition waiver, but it is required that all Fulbright grant candidates who are requesting an affiliation with a host institution that participates in the CGS Program submit their affiliation applications through this channel. This helps to streamline the application and visa paperwork process for all parties. ~~~~The online application must be completed and submitted by APRIL 30th, 2018. ~~~~ blah blah blah Please note that you are currently a recommended candidate for a Fulbright award. We appreciate your cooperation and patience as we all await the final award decisions. Best regards, Fulbright China Also, can anyone provide any insight into this? It says I am recommended, is that just a restatement that I am a semifinalist or could it mean anything else...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lml Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I don't know that it means anything we don't know already, unfortunately. I am on the other side of the CGS thing (the institute I am proposing to be affiliated does not participate in the CGS tuition waver) and haven't gotten any non CGS related emails with new information. I suspect it's just Fulbright China getting their ducks in a row to prepare to make affiliations official as soon as they hear back from bureaucratic decisions on that small blurb we had to send in a few days ago. Of the countries folks at my university applied to, China is the only one that hasn't reported the final picks. That being said, good to know you're still in the running?

I am just so anxious ToT My dean needs to know when I am graduating by like next week and I also need to figure out if I can take the Critical Language Scholarship soon so I am just very... ugh... I know you're in the same boat. It's just anxiety inducing when people keep asking what i will be doing after graduation and I don't even know when that is >< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zkewlest Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I just realized I have been posting from 2 separate accounts. SarahsSeoulSearch and zkewlest are the same person for the record ^^;; Is the slack really active? Or is there another reason this thread is so dead lol (at least compared to last year) I think I just need/want moral support, or to hear literally anything even if its from other people not in my program, just to feel like decisions are getting made and mine will come eventually! Where did you guys apply to (and what city)? What kind of research do you want to do? iloveparis23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbookworm Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Anyone have any idea how long principals are given to accept/decline their award? Like a week or something? I got Alternate for an ETA in Central Asia for the second year running which is kinda crushing lol. I figure though if anyone declines I'd know pretty soon if I move up (cause there are usually only a couple slots for the country I applied for)--anyone have any idea how long principals have to decide?

marie1025 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I'm an alternate for Spain ETA right now. From what I understand Research came out completely, but not all the ETAs were notified right away. Not sure if they know now though. 18 hours ago, Daniella1223 said: Does anyone have info on Spain ETA decisions?
