Welcome Letter from Placement

Today Ben and I received our welcome emails from the Placement office!
"Welcome! Congratulations on your nomination to a Peace Corps Master’s International assignment! Your recruiter has nominated you to be considered for programs departing in October, November or December 2012. The nomination from your recruiter is a recommendation that your application be given further consideration.

Your file has been received in the Placement Office at Peace Corps headquarters in Washington, DC. This is the place where several important screenings and assessments take place and assignment matches for qualified prospective volunteers are finalized.

As you discussed with your recruiter during the interview, the medical screening has begun. Please note that it takes OMS 8-12 weeks to review an applicant’s paperwork and determine whether that applicant is medically qualified for service."

Next Step: Wait for medical qualification... wait... wait...wait
