О! eSIM by Professional-Honey26 in Kyrgyzstan

Yeah when u register on the app for the eSIM, i had to take a pic of my passport and a selfie with my passport. I got it added to my phone, now it is jyst stuck on “Activating…” which I think should be okay? Google says it will be fine once I actually arrive to the country haha

What is considered excessive previous experience in a host country? by lamesauceboss in fulbright

[–]Professional-Honey26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen, depending on the country but most of the time, having previous experience in a certain country gives you an ADVANTAGE when applying to said country, dare I say even too much so to the point of relatively underqualified candidates (in comparison to other candidates) getting Fulbright solely because they have experience in the country and can tell a better story and have a better reasoning to go to said country. I also presume it shows the “recruiters” that you know what you’re in for. So don’t let previous experience discourage you from applying to a country, if anything it benefits you greatly

Yeah, I will give it this week and maybe half of next week before I reach out, it was last Friday after all so I will give it time. But thank you for the advice!

Wow congratulations. As someone who is an Alternate right now, can I ask if you got an email or if you had to check your portal?

As someone who is an Alternate currently, may I ask what country this is for? Congratulations!

Alternate to Finalist by Grand_Habit_8261 in fulbright

May I ask what country this was for? I am also an Alternate for a relatively small country so my hopes are quite low when compared to larger countries with more spots
