cp13

to offer some hope, I declined my award to accept an NSF, best of luck to the rest of you and I am sorry that you are being kept waiting.

Also if you are international student depending on where you are from and what language you studied in you might need to take the TOEFL test. Perhaps not applicable since you are applying for english lit, but it is quite expensive.

hey I got a call today making sure that I got the award offer because they said it got caught in some people's spam folders, so maybe it is worth checking your spam folder

my deadline was set as april 29th. I would guess, it is two weeks from when you hear, as I heard on April 15th.

hey guys, thanks and unfortunately it doesn't say. I also applied for something extremely fundamental with regards to military applications so it's hard to predict which office would have funded it. Probably not the HPCMO, all of the others I would say are possibilities.

I had received a still being considered email and then was emailed again today and received the award. Best of luck to the rest of the applicants! I am in chemistry and an incoming student if that is of interest to people

i'm in chemistry, going to grad school in the fall, and got the waitlist email.

long time lurker, full grant to germany =)

I got into CalTech a few weeks ago and just heard today with regards to financial information. They said there would be an official letter as well coming in a week or two, but they wanted to get me this information "as soon as possible" so I wouldn't worry too much.
