Teach For America 2012 Corps

<p>I am still waiting…</p>

<p>For those of you that were denied, my heartfelt apologies. I think there are endless opportunities to make a difference and I hope you all continue to contribute to making things better in the realm of education and communities at large. Did any of you who were denied have your transitional funding complete? My status has never changed.</p>

<p>To those of you accepted, CONGRATS!!!</p>

<p>My last names begins with M - not sure if they are going alphabetically or ??</p>

<p>I’m already signing up for updates about the 2013 corps. You can bet your butts I’ll likely be applying again come D1. I’ve decided that I’m likely going to take the job that has been offered to me, and I am going to spend the upcoming fall season applying for all sorts of different opportunities.</p>

<p>@Plb - I didn’t submit my transitional funding until 3-4 days ago, so mine clearly didn’t change to ‘complete’!</p>

<p>I feel the same way Smarques! I was positive until I heard about the others’ rejection notifications. I was sure they would be getting in. This is so crazy. Like you all have already said, the important thing to focus on is the children. As long as we all continue to focus on closing the achievement gap, no one here will lose out!</p>

<p>@Fairtale - are you waiting on notification today too? I haven’t heard a thing, I’m not sure how late they are supposed to be sending out notifications. Maybe they forgot about me :(</p>

<p>What kind of order do they go in?</p>

<p>I am wondering the same thing Husker - are you also waiting for results today?</p>

<p>For everyone that applied for early notification: did you receive the email first, or did your status change first?</p>

<p>Sorry to tell you Mr. Lahey that I too was invited to the webinar on Math and Science, attended and was then denied today. I hope you have a better fate!!! Although I believe in TFA’s mission, I think it was wrong of them to invite me to spend another hour learning about the program when they knew I was rejected.</p>

<p>@husker - My status on the website has not been updated. I assume that it either will not change or that it will change on March 6.</p>

<p>@sprtslvr - I sat through 2 webinars yesterday :(</p>

<p>When did you get your results</p>

<p>3:17pm, PST.</p>

<p>@plb675 any news?</p>

<p>Nothing :(</p>

<p>I just talked to my recruiter at TFA and she said she doesn’t see my name on the list for early notifications. I just forwarded her the email form staff that I got this morning saying I would get my notification today. So disappointed that I waited all day only to find out I am not getting any information.</p>

<p>According to the recruiter they only ‘try’ to get out early notifications - apparently it is not a guarantee. So my wait until March 6th begins. I am totally disappointed that I was led to believe I would know today.</p>

<p>No plb I am not receiving a notification today, I’m just all worked up for everyone else. It has always been a flaw of mine, sorry. That just doesn’t seem right. So now do you have to wait until the 6th?</p>

<p>OMG plb675, that sucks. I’m sooo soo sorry.</p>

<p>Sorry Satelle, once again, if they know and they are still making you sit through them then it is not really appropriate. The invitations did not come out until Friday night. At that point decisions had been made. Will not deter me from the mission of the organization, but I think they should have been more sensitive. It only takes a computer program to weed out those that are rejected and not lead them on. Best of luck to everyone else on this thread in whatever they pursue. You are all amazing and sweet!!!</p>

<p>I’m really irritated right now, just a huge let down. Whether it was a denial or an acceptance at least there would have been some relief.</p>

<p>Like plb, I am feeling a little forgotten. No news and it’s 3 hours out.</p>
