[@sarah-tx4xs]

You are the best !!!

[@chiwendux8947]

awww this means so much to me!!!! thank you so much

[@omaruuuu]

Everyone is literally just disappointing me and telling me that you’ll never get it because the chances are so low but seeing you guys makes me feel like I can do it, well before I was super passionate and I felt every word Farah has said like this is a dream for me and I’m super excited and I’m gonna be so down if I didn’t take it as if I’m gonna feel like my dream is falling apart and that’s also since I’m also North African from Egypt 😂👌 And I always dreamed about going to Germany and I also knew about this scholarship like only a week ago and next Friday is gonna be the day where the written exam is gonna be and the essays and everything so I’m super excited, and tell Farah to wait for me it’s only couple of months and you’re gonna be my guide it’s like a little North African community 😂😂 Anyways I’m gonna text Farah and ask her about some stuff that I would love to know so do you, in fact I already did text you 🤔 but I never asked, I think I made it so long for nothing 🤡 Alright wish you all the very best !💜💜

Aquí una estudiante mexicana. 🥰🇲🇽 Acabo de encontrarte y puedo decir que eres realmente genial, muchas gracias por todos tus consejos. Aplicaré a UWC en abril del próximo año para la generación 2024-2026, realmente deseo quedar porque es la unica oportunidad que tengo. 🥺

[@gabbb1998]

Holi, como va tu proceso, aquí en Chile cierra el primer proceso en enero, no se en MX, yo postularé el próximo año y me gustaría saber tu experiencia aunque no se si van más adelantados que en Chile… saludos 😊

[@nessuno.22]

@@gabbb1998 ¡Holaaa! Woow, no puedo creer que haya pasado más de un año desde que hice mi comentario. ¡Qué loco! Bueno, hasta ahora ha sido una experiencia realmente maravillosa y sobre todo retadora, llena de muchísimos aprendizajes. No sé si llamar destino a tu comentario. 😹 Pero actualmente me encuentro en la etapa final de nuestro proceso de selección (más de 7 meses de proceso) y en menos de una hora tengo una entrevista con el presidente de nuestro comité nacional, esa entrevista le da cierre a todo mi proceso de selección. Me estarán informando de mis resultados en la última semana de Enero.

[@gabbb1998]

@@nessuno.22 Ojalá te informen excelentes resultados, me motiva mucho tu constancia… buena suerte 🫶🏻 Saludos desde 🇨🇱

[@nessuno.22]

@@gabbb1998 ¡Muchísimas gracias! Si te soy honesta no esperaba llegar tan lejos, claro, era un deseo que tenía. Sin embargo, para mi ha sido una sorpresa realmente maravillosa. 😹 Igualmente espero que te vaya muy, muy bien. Y si tienes dudas sobre cualquier cosa puedes preguntarme, probablemente nuestros procesos de selección no sean iguales, pero estoy segura de que en algo han de parecerse.

[@mr.cherrychimoc6152]

Hola que tal!! Soy de Perú y también estoy aplicando para UWC 2024-2026. Me encuentro ahorita en la etapa 3. Queria saber que tal como te fue en cuanto sentimental, es decir, un gran requisito de uwc es ser uno mismo. Como llevaste ello? Wow realmente espero que te haya ido genial en tu última etapa, seguro si te fue genial C: Muchas Graciaaas

I'm 16 right now so it's the perfect time to try to get in for me but In case I don't get in, I want to keep trying again for the next one or two years. So can you apply at 17 and 18 years of age?

[@chiwendux8947]

yes, definitely
