Teach For America 2014 Corps

<p>@elemteacher, it appears that in years past the TF statuses change from “Complete” back to “Under Review” two days before the notification date, so I think we’re still waiting to see that happen tomorrow. But, of course, there’s nothing stopping this year from being different than other years.</p>

<p>Yup, I am definitely ready for it to all be over. My co-workers keep talking about when I get accepted, which is really messing with my, I’m definitely not getting it attitude.</p>

<p>@Tinitafish I completely understand that! I kind of wish I hadn’t talked to people about it, because everyone is very “Oh, you’re definitely getting it” and it’s making me feel more confident than I need to. But I guess I would have bad friends if they told me they didn’t think I was going to get it… Haha</p>

<p>Hi everyone, I’m so nervous about notification day. I actually got taught by TFA teachers in the Rio Grande Valley and I always wanted to apply. I can’t believe I am so close to finding out my admissions decision but reading this thread got me even more nervous because my TF status has not changed and my documents have not been verified :/. I’m hoping that it’s because even though I submitted my documents by the 10/18 deadline, I submitted the 2013/2014 SAR on Oct. 21 (I had uploaded the 2012/2013). The suspense is killing me!!!</p>

<p>I have most of California as my highly preferred regions followed by Las Vegas, Phoenix, Houston, New Mexico and Oklahoma.</p>

<p>I can’t help but feel neurotic about this. I actually have two midterms on Thursday! I will be in the middle of taking midterms while decisions should be getting emailed out. I’ll have a 4-5 hour block of not being able to check my email, phone, or laptop. I’m really thankful to have found this thread. It’s assumed the role as my online support group lol. My friends are tired about hearing about TFA… It’s good to know that the thoughts of impatience and anxiety I’m feeling are quite normal. :p</p>

<p>I have so much sympathy for the next round of waiting applicants…</p>

<p>Update: My transitional funding went back under review.</p>

<p>I now feel like I am going to throw up.</p>

<p>@tinitafish, a lot of people who were complete last year went under review for a few days before switching back to complete, I wouldn’t worry about it too much :)</p>

<p>@tinitafish: Stay positive! We still have a few more days.</p>

<p>I don’t mean to give everyone another thing to worry about but does anyone ever wonder if the placement and/or TF people work on our placements and tf statuses during normal business hours or remotely at anytime?</p>

<p>To give myself some peace of mind, I’d like to think that this is all done on a 9-5 schedule, which allows me to relax after 5PM and resume with my life. -_-</p>

<p>@tinitafish I wouldn’t worry too much about it! At least it changed - that can’t be a bad sign. Also, I just checked my boyfriend’s - his was listed as “complete” and is now back to “under review” as well.</p>

<p>Mine still hasn’t changed since my documents were verified on Friday but I’m trying to stay hopeful. This is going to be a long few days…</p>

<p>Mine has followed the trend as well. My TF status went from “Complete” to “Under Review” again as of this evening. WE CAN MAKE IT! ONLY 72 MORE HOURS! :S</p>

<p>Oh gosh, now I am worried that mine hasn’t followed the trend. Mine is still “complete”! What is up with that? I definitely should have never learned about this whole TF status…</p>

<p>Mine went from “Complete” to “Under Review” too. From last year’s board this occurred too and they were theorizing that it was due to the placement being made and aligning the TF amount to the region. Many people started noticing amounts around this time too??</p>

<p>Hi, guys. I’m pleased to be joining in the rampant obsessing and freaking out about TFA. My transitional funding just went under review again, too, which I’m hoping, as @TFAHopeful21 says, is a good sign!</p>

<p>Yup I’m still “under review” so I am thinking nothing will change til the day of or midnight on the 30th. The suspense is killing me, I just want to know now! Anyways, does anyone have an inside scope on how TFA Admissions reviews applications? It seems to me that TFA should already have made up their minds on who they want to join the corps. I wonder who actually makes the final decision, I know your final interviewer recommends you but I do not think they make the ultimate decision.</p>

<p>Yup, mine just went from “Complete” to “Under Review” as well. I guess now we wait more.</p>

<p>I tried to look through last year’s posts. Did anyone find someone who was accepted, whose status went from “Under Review” to “Complete” to “Under Review” and then got in or rejected? Man, I wish the girl at my final interview never showed me this blog! I would have never known about this silly TF status thing!</p>

<p>Haha…How appropriate is it being announced on Halloween? Hopefully I won’t be going out Thursday dressed as the Grim Reaper lol</p>

<p>Has anyone’s stayed complete or am I the only one?</p>

<p>did anyone here apply for early notification?? supposedly they found out a few days ago!</p>

<p>@nothingcompares discussed the change from “Complete” to “Under Review” back to “Complete” earlier on this board. He indicated this was the change to look for. They mentioned their TF Status remained “Complete” and they were waitlisted? @nothingcompares please correct me if I’m saying wrong information or maybe some clarification to ease our anxiety!</p>
