[Update 1: There seems to be a notification issue again this year. I'm hearing reports of rejection letters followed by congratulation letters. If you received both of these, be sure to let us know. Original text is also appreciated. I would like to note that in cases where this happens, you might just have to wait until the list is received to be sure.]
[Update 2: I'm sure many of you know by now, having seen the Facebook page, that the earlier incidents with emails were the result of some kind of system problem. The real results should go out sometime later, I guess.]
[Update 3: The 2012 finalist list has now been released (PDF), and the notifications are still trickling out. If you haven't heard anything yet, check the official list for your name. This year there were 628 finalists, which is considerably lower than previous years. A permanently archived version of the list is here.]
According to the official information channels, the 2012 PMF finalist results are supposed to be out "on or around" January 24th. Unofficial word on the street is that they're going out now. In the past, these notifications have taken a while to process, so if you haven't heard anything yet, be patient.
But if you have heard anything...
Let us know if you made it or not.
If so, congratulations. Now it's time to find a position :) Let us know if you have any particular agencies or job fields in mind. Also, are you going to attend the job fair?
If not, just remember that the process was competitive, and lots of otherwise good, well-qualified semifinalists are also being sent away. Finally, given the recent structural changes to the program, I think applying again next year is in your best interest, so go for it! Be sure and let us know whether you plan to try again next year.
Once the finalist list is published, I will make a new post linking to it.

2011 PMF Finalists Update
[Also posted here]
[Update 1: There were 850 finalists this year. Last year there were 869.]
[Update 2: The list is now posted at http://www.pmf.gov/become-a-pmf/current-finalists.aspx, so if you haven't gotten your email yet, go check the list out.]
The finalists for the 2011 Presidential Management Fellows program have begun to receive their notifications. At present, the list has not been posted. Also, it looks like rejections may be going out first.
Join in the conversation on the Open Thread (well, the second one).

2011 PMF Finalists: Open Thread 2
Would you look at that? One of you (or all of you) must have broken the last thread, because it stopped paginating properly at around 800 comments. So I'm opening a new thread to catch the overflow. Comment here instead of the old one.

2011 PMF Finalists: Open Thread
[Also posted here]
I've been waiting to post this until the PMF Program Office offered up any news. The 2011 PMF finalist list is due out sometime in late March, according to the latest news on the PMF web site. While this is still vague, it's nevertheless right around the corner. Historically, the PMF Program Office has provided roughly a 2 week news lead on the results, so my prediction is that we may hear something around March 29. As I have done in the past, I am opening this thread to collect your stories of acceptance or rejection. Did you make it? If so, congratulations to you. Is this the end of the PMF road for you? I know it may be disappointing, but consider what you've learned along the way, and remember how fierce the competition was; the semifinalists were already a stellar group, so you are in good company, just unfortunately on the wrong side of a line. Why not sit among peers and share your triumphs and frustrations?
Note: I would link to the news blurb on the PMF site, but since they still don't really get how everyone else does news, there won't be a permanent link to it, and it will die as soon as some new bit of fluff comes floating by. ;)

2010 PMF Finalists: Open Thread
According to the PMF web site, the finalist results for 2010 will be out in late February or early March. Given that there are only 10 days left in February, we could be within, say, 20 days of an announcement (for perspective, last year's announcement was on March 5-6). If you receive your Notice of Results, why not share the good (or bad) news here?
