CBYX 2015-16

@evan241 what other scholarships did you apply for?

Hey guys,
CBYX called me a couple days ago to tell me that I’d been accepted! I was told that I’d receive an email today with a link to some paperwork stuff. Did any other people from AFS who won the scholarship hear something like that?

I didn’t get into CBYX… very happy I accepted NSLI-Y last week instead!

I got alternate!! I am so thankful to know they saw potential in me! I worked so hard and I’m so glad it still might be possible for me to travel to Germany 2015-2016!! :slight_smile:

Congratulations to everyone who got picked as a finalist or alternate!!! :slight_smile: do you have any tips for me? My interview is tomorrow :slight_smile:

I got alternate!! I am so thankful and excited for whats to come:)

Sorry my phone was glitching and I thought it didn’t post, whoops haha.
@linzyh‌ just be yourself, the interview is actually really fun! They want someone who is confident, so try not to be to shy :slight_smile: I suggest getting the other applicants phone numbers so you can keep in contact with them!

@cblake233 Congrats!! Typically a lot of alternates end up going, so I wish you luck :slight_smile: Are you going to be on the conference call tonight?? I’m really annoyed because I can’t make it tonight- the info is probably going to be pretty straightforward, though.

@evan241‌ yes I will!:slight_smile: they’re going to send out a recording of it to everyone so you don’t have to worry!

I am seriously so, so, SO happy to see so much enthusiasm here on this website about studying abroad. (Most of the stuff I saw before I actually looked at the study abroad section were people just wanting to go abroad to make themselves look better for college apps. It can def. help make a good impression, but it’s something that requires a lot of dedication and strength.)

congrats to everyone who made it!

I just had my interview! I feel pretty good about it :slight_smile:

@linzyh‌ Congrats! When will you hear back?

I hear back April 1 :slight_smile:

Well good luck! O:-)

Best of luck to all of the other CIEE’ers interviewing in Atlanta tomorrow! I very much look forward to meeting you :slight_smile:

@petitlion‌ good luck!!! Good luck to everyone!

Gahhhhh I’m going to die waiting for March 27th!

Ahhh news coming for me this Friday. This is gonna be the longest week of my life!

News for us comes April 1st. Ugh, this month has been taking its time for sure!

Good luck today, @SirVinnie‌! I’m rooting for you!
