I think alternates still have a good chance! Program dates may be conflicting for some finalists, or since notifications were sent out a bit late I think?

Someone on the Facebook group said that he was a Korean finalist in a past year. His institution had 27 students, and about 4 or 5 of them were alternates.

No idea how big the alternate pool is, though.

Which site? I was selected as an alternate.

We will be told our sites next week, we don’t know.

Made an account just now but i've been following this thread for a while haha.

I'm also an alternate for advanced Japanese. Does anyone know the chances of getting in off the alternates list?

anyone else having issues w the Accepted Students Portal? I'm working on the Medical Forms part, and for some reason the "generate PDF" button isn't showing up, even though I've done all the other sections.

Nope,  but the anecdotes I've heard make it sound like it's a decent chance. I'd guess that we Japanese alternates have a bit of a hard time, since there is only one program in Japan, but don't give up yet!

A poll on the Facebook applicants group showed no more than 6 known alternates in any program so far, and program alumni say that they saw a decent number of applicants in their classes. Some got their notifications as late as May... I don't know if I can play chicken for that long, but if I get an email then I will definitely see what I can do.

Any Korean finalists who are going to the Busan site? Most of the people i've talked to are going to Gwangju

I’m also going to Busan!

The first alternate promotions should be this week, Tuesday or later. Since there is only one CLS site in Japan, and therefore fewer people who might drop, it might be good for me to assume that it's this week or never for me.

Fingers crossed!
