emopeacock Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 My guess is either tomorrow (end of February) or Friday, since it’s “early March” and the end of the week. But what do I know, I’m just as in the dark as anyone else haha.
dragon_seed Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 My guess is Thursday. If it's not by Thursday, I'll cry. I can't focus on any work knowing we're at the end of the line for this. Also, it's so tempting to check your e-mail every five seconds, but I doubt they're going to send the notifications before 4:30 PM eastern time. Even the semi-finalist notifications were sent around that time. So, that means 3:30 PM for the centrals and 1:30 PM for the pacifics. Rivai 1
Rivai Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Lol is it weird I’m expecting the notifications next week instead, I have 0 faith. I’m so nervous.
dragon_seed Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Yet I'm still checking my e-mail every five seconds. Nina Greenwood 1

serapi Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Just created an account to join the discussion. I’m a first time applicant to CLS and a semi finalist for Korean. So so anxious to hear back! Anyone think today will be the day? Nina Greenwood 1

So so anxious to hear back! Anyone think today will be the day? I doubt it, but hope like everyone else, seeing as they have responded very vaguely to when they would send notifications and last year they sent them March 7 I think.
BigBoi Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Previous years they had sent them out on dates like Feb 25th and 26th though
woshimeiguoren Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Maybe this year will be another year where they'll send out the decisions possibly March 7

woshimeiguoren Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Well I'm putting my faith in this scholarship and I'm not going to register for summer classes. Rip
TwentyNine Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 A non-refundable enrollment fee will be charged to my account tomorrow for a 10-day study abroad course in May. If CLS pre-departure orientation overlaps with it, I'll have to cancel and that's a sunk cost. If not, my current study abroad scholarships cover it. It's frustrating that they won't even say when the orientation will be.
emopeacock Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 They’ve explicitly said multiple times that it would be by the end of this week. Usually they give themselves a pretty lenient window. If they thought they needed more time they probably would have said next week when asked. Stay positive, all we can do is wait anyway TwentyNine and BigBoi 2
TwentyNine Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Looking over previous years' threads here, it seems that orientation is usually in June. That is a relief to me, and takes a lot of stress off of this. I have backup plans for June and July (even though CLS is what I really want to do), so I don't need to panic anymore. Edit: Still checking email too frequently. Edited February 28, 2018 by TwentyNine
woshimeiguoren Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 There's also the other possibility that they may send out the finalist emails at 4:59 to avoid the phone calls and emails they'd be getting later. BigBoi 1
TwentyNine Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 If that happens, let's all call at 9:00 out of spite q: RJB36 1

TwentyNine Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 But there won't be any more waiting if that happens - you can wait until then *and* be petty!

Pretty sure that’ll be the case. Edit: I would love to work one of these programs one year so I can see the insanity that probably happens. Edited February 28, 2018 by emopeacock

emopeacock Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Why you gotta play me like that. Edit: removing personal info Edited February 28, 2018 by emopeacock
ItsAllTheyHad Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I'm doing some mental acrobatics justifying that the email MUST come today because I read somewhere that we would know BY March, which begins at midnight. Maybe we find out at 11:59 p.m. today?
serapi Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I hope so, there’s only a few hours left before they all go home for the day I don’t know how much longer I can take the suspense
