@marieamne Thanks! I hope they won’t change the language requirements for each city…I would love to go to Moscow next year if I get accepted but I won’t be much more than a beginner by then.
@DevinC4 I didn’t get an email either, after reading everything from past applicants I can tell there is a chance. I don’t think its great though
Does this mean that other countries might start coming out tomorrow?
@HenryGeorge well either way great job making it this far.
Does anyone know the chances of someone getting their second choice program? Specifically Chinese summer?
@sandylily I don’t know about all second choices, but at my interview, I heard that the Chinese program was especially popular this year. Getting in is probably more difficult for first and second choice applicants.
@zoompython Oh well, it was worth a shot. Thank you!
Does anyone know how many alternates are choses for Russian? Also any idea what the chances of becoming a finalist are as an alternate?
@gmwilson there’s not really any way to predict the chances of becoming a finalist, as it all depends if someone declines nsliy (for one reason or another). if i were to hazard a guess, i’d say it’s pretty unlikely
So I’m more or less rejected now, I think. Oh well.
Hi guys, I got my notification for Russian summer in Kirov, Russia today. Also, last year’s notifications for Russian summer were spread over the course of a few days, so really don’t count yourself out just yet.
@Ruzzen Weird question, but what time zone are you in?
And congratulations!
@sandylily
Central standard Time Zone
Did anyone get accepted to Tajikistan yet? Last year the first notifications came out on February 28th.
@hotchkiss50 Some people are saying that Tajikistan notifications should come out in a week or so
When should Arabic or Hindi ones come out
Hindi came out on the 28th, and Arabic should come out around March 20 or sometime around then. Good luck!
I applied for Russian summer and I haven’t gotten my email yet. Does that mean I didn’t get the scholarship? Do they only send acceptance emails, or do they also send rejection emails?
I live in Arizona if that helps
They they do send out rejection emails which come out after all of the acceptance and alternates. From what I understand, they send out notifications over the course of a few days, so don’t give up hope yet!
