Any update or follow-up after submission of Fulbright application? When the short-listing will be completed.

Bilal, perhaps you are missing my question. Please re-read it. I meant when the students will be shortlisted for interview?

Meri jan I am talking about shortlisting as well. It is a very long and cumbersome process. My friend who applied in 2007 is going tomorrow on flight

Dear, re-confirm. Your information is totally misleading. One of my acquaintances who applied for Fulbright in 2007, completed his MS and already back home in the end of 2010, I guess.

And these scholarships are announced every year.

WHat can I say except please wake up. You cant come back after Fulbright. You have to serve USA after scholarship and have to sign a bond never to come back

Bilal, now it has been confirmed to me that you don't know anything, rather misleading others intentionally. There is no such bond to serve America; rather there is a bond to serve your own country (in our case Pakistan) for the number of years equivalent to which we spend in the US. And my acquaintance is currently serving for two years on a government project in Pakistan because he spent two years in the US on Fulbright.

Now don't further mislead us.

Thanks
