Hi again,

That is for sure going to sound like a cliché but... Alea iacta est. I have sent all what was to send and waiting time begins.

It is difficult to check one's e-mail while keeping fingers crossed, but we will manage ;)

Hi Dawid,

It's "alea jacta est" for me as well ;)

Hope we won't have to wait too long and that we can get through ^^

Hi there,

I've sent all the required documents too.
We can expect the first answers to come in late April (I had mine on the 30th of April last year) or even before actually as the center seems to be much more efficient this year. (We are already 1 week ahead of schedule compared to last year)

All we have to do is to .... wait. Some of us may recieve an e-mail saying to which company they have sent the letter. And the next e-mail will be the one telling you that you are (or not) the chosen one. (Maybe I should watch Matrix tonight ^^ )

Good luck to all of you.

The die is cast for me too (I've had enough of latin at high school), now let's just sit and wait...
Hope my mail won't tell "Luke I'm your father"!

Hi there everyone!

I am not sure if you know (there is a notice in the main Vulcanus website), but there was a problem with the postal services and some applications were latter delivered. Because of this yesterday the center received the last motivation letters for companies. I believe that only now will the applicants be evenly divided and the motivations letters sent to the companies.

Just wanted to give you guys the heads up in case you´re already getting anxious. :P

Best Regards and Good Luck

ehehe :)

now we also know there were 886 applicants for the "first round" + about 7% (13 shortlisted vs 180) for the "second round"
that's about 950 application forms!

Yep, nice calculation ^^

According to the FAQ document from the centre's website, only 600 people applied last year...
That's about 58% more applicants than last year!

Yeah, more applicants but same places! Or even fewer compared to last year.
I'm shortlisted and in the mail they sent it was stated that I have one chance out of four, that is 25%, to be selected... At that time, end of February, there were about 145 shortlisted; 25 % of 145 is less than 40... :ermm:
Anyway, we'll see (soon enough I hope)!
