Teach For America - 2020 Corps

I am from Chicago hoping to be placed here, but I only qualified to teach elementary here. I am open to moving to Indiana too if it means I can teach High School. I felt that I did great in my interview and was the only one to finish in time, but i have heard that from others that didn’t make it so you never really know. Will you guys be posting your decisions as you get them tomorrow?

@kseg27 Congrats on finishing your lesson within the 5 minutes! I didn’t because I experienced some technical difficulties and then I became nervous. Virtual interviews are interesting, to say the least. I am nervous! I applied to the Great Philadelphia region, with a preference in elementary ed. 5pm seems so far away! I hope everyone has a productive day. Good luck

Hi! I find out today as well! Very nervous! Currently a museum educator in Alabama and hoping to make a big change to NYC!

@MissMadd @kseg27 Good Luck!!

Hi!! I find out today too. I was worried when I didn’t find any notifications and thought that I was rejected! So I started googling and found this! Haha. Whoosh nervous. I am in New York and looking to stay, but I gave several options that I am open to going with if they choose to place me elsewhere.

Gahhhh so excited/nervous

Has anyone heard anything yet? I know we are supposed to find out at 5pm but I saw the sometimes people find out early…

Nothing on my end. ??? I need to put my phone down lol

I have not heard anything either. We should be hearing within the hour right, 5 pm eastern time?

LOL I should also put my phone down and close my laptop… I’ve been refreshing the page every 15 minutes! But, yes, I’m pretty sure we will know by 5pm EST! Good luck, everyone!!!

Nothing here, either. Did receive an email from my recruiter earlier this morning, the usual spill about if accepted or not, they could provide more support either way and to keep them as a resource/stay in touch whatever the results may be. Sounds pretty standard, anyone received anything from their recruiter?

Yep 40 minutes from now. Holy cow. I’m getting antsy. I’m supposed to be working. You know, they should really release these in the morning! Lol

Everytime I get an email I hold my breathe lolol.

Same, and I am not in the east coast. You guys have to wait longer lol

Is anyone daydreaming about once they get accepted AND rejected? Like your reaction? Gosh, I haven’t been this anxious since applying to college lol!

I am definitely daydreaming. It is like a roulette. Like this could be life changing, you know. This determines where we will live for the next two years if we accept it!

So true. I started checking at 6 this morning. Before knowing that they don’t release till evening lol.

Yessss!

Ransacked a few more forums, sometimes the results aren’t sent right after 5pm EST. Sometimes 30mins after.

Very nervous!

Oh no, I don’t think I can wait any longer. Literally have a countdown going on right now haha

Same so maybe one more minute left. Lol

nothing yet…
