 Turns out that I actually have until Friday  ( they messed up the deadline date )  so I'm still trying to decide haha

In that case - I had one more thing I thought of to add. While it looks equally good on your CV to have either grant - a thing to remember is that usually when you give talks etc. in school your PI will introduce you as a NSF or NDSEG fellow. The grant will also be on every poster you present and every talk you give. So if you think one is more prestigious/has more name recognition there is a realistic reason to choose that one. I vote NSF

So which did you choose?

Hi! I think a lot of it depends on your field of interest. The NSF has more name recognition and I think that is an important factor since they both offer about equal funding.

 

A semi-related question. When does the NDSEG require that you get back to them by?
