You should probably contact them. I heard positive news by email on April 16th, and got a snail mail letter about a week letter. Other students in my department heard their news (both positive and negative) around the same time.

Quick question for people who have won before. Does anyone have any advice on routing the money individually, or routing the money through the institution. I know everyone's tax situation is different but I have heard some tax horror stories around my department.

From scanning past years message boards, it seems that people either get a "funding request" email that says their is no need to reapply, or a rejection with their scores and reviews. I have no idea what a funding request email that doesn't mention anything about reapplying signifies.

Yes, according to how things have worked previously. You are looking for the magic phrase ""There is no need for you to reapply for the May 1 deadline. "

Someone in my department just got the email, it has begun...

While its normally on a Monday afternoon, in 2011 it was on a Wednesday (the 6th). So even if it doesn't come today, it may come later in the week. What time do we call it? 5pm ET, since the WG offices are in NYC?

Right there with you Nrrrdgirl....my proposal defense will happen in a few weeks if I get good news next week...or in the fall otherwise

Sorry Elunia, but it sounds like there were some constructive comments to help you for the May deadline. Has anyone else heard?

L&C notifications went out via email at the end of May last year. Applicants got a yes, no, or waiting list. I got put on the waiting list, and then heard that I received the award at the end of July.

Agreed, hopefully this week is the week...for us to find out if we get to endure another waiting session in April....

Looks like the SSRC dream is over, anyone heard anything yet on the Wenner Gren?

According to last year's forum it was February 7th (Thursday), so my guess is any day now..

According to grad cafe, in 2011 the list was posted around 1:30. In 2010 it was posted around 12:50....which would be in ten minutes
