Congrats, again! It sounds like they are really quick and efficient when it comes to getting the logistics figured out once the awards are decided...which is awesome! It's very encouraging to hear from success!

One week until this next deadline. Do you guys think that May has fewer total applications? I'm curious about this... Any new/first-time applicants found us yet? Or is it just the same old people on here...?

Hey, fellow revisionists...anyone else SUPER HATE this soul-crushing, dream-killing process? I think I hate my own project now, too!

HAHA...worked for W-G. But I applied for NSF way back in August, and didn't get feedback until mid-March, so there's no telling with this beast. But, for your sake, I'm going to say that you guys won't be getting any information this week at all!

Yes, share this magical format! :-D

hooray for tips! I just finished working through your proposal, Far_to_go...and I'm not surprised they funded you...very interesting stuff!

Congrats on getting so much recognition...you must have seriously cracked the code. Any general advice for those of us still struggling to break through that funding seal? I would absolutely appreciate if you took the time to look over my proposal; I'll message you.

OK, revisions time...who's with me?!

CONGRATS! I know you've been working so hard, since I see you on all the forums! Go you! Hey, I'm curious if those of you who got funding would be willing to share your applications with those of us revising? It would be helpful, I think, to see some winning proposals!

Hey, look...I was right! We got notification, just like I said we wouldn't! No need to be cynical, Bingo...as far as I know, no one who got that email was ever turned down for funding! I also got some good feedback, and will resubmit...two whole weeks to do so. YIKES!

I've been wrong so far...I was convinced it would be last Monday. Then, I thought "today for sure!". So, I'm going to try to use this awesome power of wrongness and say we won't hear tomorrow, thereby ensuring that we will! Strategy!

my academia.edu profile has gotten several hits in the last 2 days, including one from New York...am I being a weirdo thinking it might be connected?

HOLY COW! This is good news, but still, WHEN?!?!?!?!

so tempted to

FYI: some brave person on another forum emailed W-G...so keep on eye here too: http://academicjobs.wikia.com/wiki/Dissertation_Fellowships_2014-2015

It is a little paranoid, but it is technically possible. However, in the past, final notifications are out before the next deadline...hopefully they stick to that pattern!

Magic. Or, find the one you want and copy image, then paste. Very easy!

But if we need to reapply, every day matters!!!

I doubt it. I wonder if they have any idea what they put us through... I'm beginning to feel like this is an unhealthy relationship. But, you know, all of this agony will be forgotten in a second when people start getting money!

Apparently not today..

How can we email anonymously?!

Because I can't do anything else with today, clearly...

Can we ask them...

Should we abandon all hope and just go live real life?
