<p>“Congratulations! We are pleased to invite you to join the 2012 Teach For America corps and are excited to assign you to teach bilingual elementary school (grades PreK-6) in Dallas. In order to reserve or decline your place in the corps, you must complete our accept or decline forms by November 21 at 6 p.m. Eastern Time.”</p>

<p>I still have not gotten an e-mail notifying me. I just logged onto the site and found out. I’m so excited though!!! I’m FROM Dallas so this means so much to me.</p>

<p>@thegirl08: CONGRATS!</p>

<p>Haven’t gotten an email yet either, but my transitional funding updated with dollar amounts 30 minutes ago and then it updated to:</p>

<p>“We are pleased to invite you to join the 2012 Teach For America corps and are excited to assign you to teach middle school in Houston.”</p>

<p>Houston was my 1st preference! yay!</p>

<p>For those who haven’t seen a status change yet and are currently on the TFA site, try logging out and logging back in. I just did this and got a status screen saying that I am accepted!</p>

<p>However, it doesn’t tell me where I have been placed. Instead, it asks me to fill out a form to give them an indication on how likely I am to accept and what remaining questions I have. Also, all options other than “Application” and “Status” are now gone from my navigation bar.</p>

<p>Before I logged out, I also showed the crazy numbers for the Transitional Funding loan and grant.</p>

<p>Accepted!!! Details to follow</p>

<p>I didn’t get an e-mail, but my Status says this:</p>

<p>Congratulations on your acceptance! To help us better facilitate your decision about joining Teach For America, please answer the following questions:</p>

<p>Be advised that your response has absolutely no bearing on your offer status or position in the corps.</p>

<p>Given all the information that you currently have about Teach For America, please rate on the scale below where you are in your decision to accept our offer to join the 2012 corps.</p>

<p>Then it has a survey…</p>

<p>???</p>

<p>winterbaby, I wonder if our files are still being updated with the other info?</p>

<p>@caveatamator: Did you answer the survey??</p>

<p>Mine is doing the same thing. It says I’ve been accepted, but doesn’t tell me where. Has anyone filled out the survey yet?</p>

<p>i got the same survey thing… what does this mean? they havent placed us?</p>

<p>i’m afraid to fill out the survey because I don’t want to be placed in some obscure place because of my answers… hahha. </p>

<p>but congratulations anyway to those who made it!</p>

<p>Probably because it’s not 8pm yet…</p>

<p>@winterbaby I didn’t submit it yet, since I wasn’t sure if my placement would cause me to have any specific question that I would want to include.</p>
