Teach for America 2016 Corps

I like SW Ohio and NE Ohio but didn’t apply for tf. Did you get a phone call yet?

The survey didn’t close until the 31st tho so they might be waiting til after that

@efghi12 I have not received a phone call yet. I opted for it but remember it saying that it would only be a small group selected. If I do receive a call I will let you know.

Hi Everyone I love looking at discussions like this because i completely remember that just year ago I was in your shoes. I am a current corps member teaching 9th grade ELA in Oklahoma. If you have any questions regarding transition or anything please let me know!

Anyone remembers the summer institute date for California region? I remember seeing it on the placement request page… but forgot to write it down :frowning:

Here is a link @somniumk to the schedule https://www.teachforamerica.org/teach-with-tfa/your-training-and-support/attending-summer-training/summer-institute-schedule

Hi everybody! I’ve been trying to stay away from this thread after posting a few times…it gets me so excited and anxious about potentially being accepted into TFA (which is a great thing, but I’m trying not to think about it too much because at this point the decision is completely out of my control). But now that decision day is so soon, I’m allowing myself to follow this thread again :).

I’m a senior undergrad studying English and History in Indiana. I’m definitely starting to get anxious about Jan. 6th. It’s crazy to think that an acceptance could change my whole path, and a rejection would make TFA just another blip on the post-grad job search radar.

@somniumk June 26-July 30th California Capital Valley is held in Philadelphia at the Philadelphia region.

@ Dreamer5 Thank you! So nice of you to be standing in solidarity with us TFA 2016 aspirants.

4 more days guys!! All heads up!!

Any changes in TF status for anyone?

Trying my best not to check my account but it is all I am thinking about!! My documents are still “N/A”, “YES,” and “YES” but still Under Review. Any changes to yours??

Also, my loans from my university are in parentheses next to the documents

TF Documents says YES under verified. Application Status: Under Review

@ efghi12 Welcome! Only few more days!

@Tfamemphisbound no problem! I was literally stalking my corps year waiting for acceptance its super exciting to see you all go through this.

@JPTEACH Thank you so much! I wasn’t sure which region to look at… Now I found it with your help! Yay! Hmm … It’s weird that California is one of their participating regions …

@somniumk You’re welcome :slight_smile: and yes I used the above link to get the information.

@OneDayTFA and @Tfamemphisbound I have not looked at the applicant center since before Christmas. I figured that TFA is probably on vacation until January 4th so we probably will not be seeing anymore changes on TF until this week coming up. Just think in a couple of days the long wait will be over :slight_smile:

@somniumk I thought the same thing I would have guessed Phoenix for California

Good point @JPTEACH! 3 days, everyone! I am excited to be able to share this anticipation with all of you and no matter what lets try to remember that what is meant to be will be :smiley:
