Any alternates hear anything yet?

Yeah my roommate hasn't been notified yet either, but I got my notification that I was a finalist but not a winner this morning.

Ugh, I wish they would just give us final notification so I could go ahead and accept NSF.

Also, the reason to take DOE is that it's way more cash!

Yeah, I'd take NDSEG. It's more money. And on a CV you are still an NSF winner. You can put something like: NDSEG (accepted), NSF (declined).

congrats, Neurone!

Oh, rejected. Oh well.

via email? I haven't gotten one yet!

Haha thanks. It dates back to my high school days, which were a looong time ago now. But I do still love Miles Davis. Good luck to you!

I haven't decided which I'd take. But I'm not getting my hopes up about NDSEG, anyway.

it is definitely afternoon! (ps I also called earlier because I hadn't bothered to check on here in a few minutes, and was told the same thing: this afternoon. so I'm pretty sure it's true.)

Only one more full day of waiting!

I can't get through; it just went to voicemail. I don't want to be annoying, and I'm sure they have caller ID, so I am afraid of calling a bunch of times.

My hopes for a call are beginning to wane...anyone else hear anything?

What field of engineering are you in? It seems everyone so far has been physics or engineering! wh109, what letter does your last name start with?

Awesome! I don't like this method of notification; I wish we could just all know at once. I think it's very likely I didn't get one, but I'm not going to be able to help keeping my hopes up until I hear for sure.

Holy crap! Can you guys confirm what time you were called at? I can't figure out what is going on with the times on this message board (I'm sure I could but I barely slept last night). EDIT: nm, i figured it out. just didn't want to use my brain.

I GOT IT!

Haha, for real, I already experienced one heart attack and serious, serious disappointment when watching the game. I actually might not be upset if the second round of that got put off.

Yeah, it says "Processing of this request was delegated to a server that is not functioning properly."

ugh, i really hope tomorrow counts as later this week, but somehow i think it doesn't.

Email from NDSEG today: Thank you for applying to the NDSEG Fellowship Program. Not to worry. Award announcements have not been issued yet. We plan on issuing those via e-mail late this week or early next week. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

What do you think their definition of early is? I guess Monday or Tuesday? So soon!

I got the impression that they had called people rather than emailing, and that they had only called people who won. I didn't get an email either and I think it'd be weird that ALL of us would have "missed" the email, so I'm pretty sure one wasn't sent out.

ahhh does second week mean next week? or the second full week?
