Sad… still need 2 more years of experience to become a member. Anyways, I’m happy that all CFA exams are done. 
And congrats to all new Charterholders.
I see the letters behind my name on the website now…yes, feels good.
I’ve also applied via the CFA UK Society, submitted my applciation yesterday. Just to clarify, are you saying the CFAI and the UK society approved you on the same day?
Yes, both approved same day. Though I was already a member as a student anyway of CFA UK
Received the mail today.
“You are now a CFA® charterholder, and you may begin using the coveted CFA designation!”
Yes, the “coveted” designation… and the fact that you worked hard to earn it… reminder of the PAIN-and-the-GAIN.
putting in my application next week when references get put in. Hopefully my work experience counts…
I submitted yesterday - still waiting. I hope the CFAI approves soon.
