Teach for America 2016 Corps

@JPTEACH super point! Wednesday it is.

We are almost there!!! <3

Just a few more days until we hear back.

@lakooh it’s an interesting field. One thing I’ve noticed is, it all boils down to "education. " Many disparities that need to be broken down. This is a big reason why I find a great interest in the education field. … hopefully one day I can incorporate them both into research.

To answer the question of TF… 3 of my documents have been verified with a “YES” and one is listed “NO.” I uploaded a letter for the one listed “NO” a few days ago. I assumed since it was break, I probably wouldn’t see much change.

Thankfully my vacation time kept me occupied this last week, to call my mini obsession lol. We are less than 3 full days away!!

Good luck to everyone!! Only three more days ! Woot! Also, do we learn about the school & subject assignment on the 6th as well?

Hey everyone, new here. My TF funding just says complete, but nothing was verified. Is that a bad sign?

Hey @AndyAndyAndy does it say “complete” on your main applicant center page, or after you click “view transitional funding status” does it say “need based transitional funding application status: complete” at the top of the page? Also, it seems as if the “YES,NO, & N/A” are not centered next to the documents

Ohhhhh yea… I’m still under review as well. I’m back to work, and it’s hard to concentrate lol… how are yahl doing?

Just waiting patiently for Wednesday. Hard to think about anything else. My documents have been verified either with a “YES” or “N/A” and my TF application is still “Under Review” fingers and toes crossed for us all :smiley:

@MoLoveMoGrowth It says complete on the main applicant center page. Then on the next page, it says under review.

Hi @ MoLoveMoGrowth I am here too on edge…lol, reading some inspirational/motivational literature and trying to tame my TFA notification day obsession.
All in all our mission here is great! We are such an inspiring set of people and I pray and wish us all the very best on Wednesday!!

OK gotcha! Yup, I believe what everyone is talking about with the complete, incomplete, and under review is the status on the TF page. I’m convinced that TFA has caught on to completed TF apps being an indicator of acceptance. @AndyAndyAndy

Thank you for the encouragement, I agree!! @tfamemphisbound.

@molovemogrowth, so is the fact that none of my stuff has been verified a bad thing?

@somniumk I was told that we would find out what region, grade level (Elementary, Middle or High), and subject we would be placed in on acceptance day and we would have twenty days after that to either accept or reject the offer. You will have to apply to schools individually when the program actually starts though.

@AndyAndyAndy I wouldn’t say it’s a bad thing. There were people in past deadlines / years whose TF didn’t change until notification day. I honestly don’t know how much we can trust TF status changes anymore.

@AndyAndyAndy I too never had anything “verified” on any of the items that have said “complete” or “submitted” since I completed my application in September.

well, @ssgradstudent hopefully that isn’t a bad thing…

What information should be verified? I didn’t apply for transitional funding so is that what should be verified or my transcripts and recommendations? @MoLoveMoGrowth

Just got an email from a local recruiter. Whole “no matter what happens you’ll do great” message. I’m starting to get nervous lol

I also got an email from Sam Sherwood, recruitment manager in Chicago @cneda105 !
