I'm just curious, did anyone receive a message saying they had personally identifying information in their application, and if so can you share the type of information you were asked to change?

New email update just dropped! Mine included "you have successfully submitted a complete application and NO ACTION is required on your part; thank you for your patience and understanding."

I was just wondering what you mean by aging out of the requirements, do you mean the number of years left in grad school because I'm also a returning grad student and didn't see anything like an age limit, for example I know the Rhoads has an age limit of 25

Yes they were different emails but it seems like they often send these emails out manually so you may have just not received it yet

I also got both emails but my application doesn't display any activity since it was moved to subject panel review right after I submitted it.

hey @fellowshipstressI applied this year for biosciences. I was one of the unfortunate applicants from last cycle who was likely immediately disqualified because my recommenders used my name. Hopefully better luck next time and good luck to you!

I also got this today, I started sweating and probably went pale when I read that generic feedback and thought it was all about me. If Ford and GRFP can send out the reviewers' comments to all 20k of their applicants I don't see why neither DOD contractor can handle it.

Patiently awaiting Sweden's decisions to be released, I suppose at this point no news is good news. Friends of mine in Sweden say the political/cultural situation there is currently not well, with many people in the government advising the population to prepare for war.. which is a level of "freak-out" that is very not typical for Swedes and especially their politicians.

You got all the rejections meant for all the physics applicants haa

Well at least I can stop wondering now. I just wish they were normal and gave feedback.

I don't think whether or not your BAA has any "projects" matter. I had accidentally reached out to the person in charge of the program I applied to and they liked my weird wacky niche proposal and indicated it could win funding, unfortunately the subject matter panel didn't feel the same way.

I also applied to life sciences/genetics. The person who runs the program is an insect geneticist and I was really hoping my application was going to make it to her for review. oh well.

@cellbiogal are you saying that even if I only had a Jan 31 update I may still be in the running?

Honorable mention for the second year in a row, womp womp

ugghh damn, if it was only me I still had hope to hold on to.. Good luck to us I guess
