Has anyone else still not gotten an update since November?

My guess based on previous years is that the November update is that your application is complete, the December update is that your application was reviewed by the SME panel, the February update indicates you made it to the DoD review panel (~30% of applications), and the March/April updates indicate internal winnowing of the top applicants. This makes sense why people have been rejected at each phase and only those will all or almost all of the updates are awarded. I also think the December timeline might depend on the branch and discipline. Tldr: December updates are only a bad sign if that is your last update.

It's the last edited date under the preview application tab. It's not super obvious.

Has anyone who applied to ONR received a December update?

What branch did you apply to? Mine still says Nov 25

I just got my email as well!

Thanks @mikefromnj! You were right. I just got the email. I was worried for a bit lol

Thanks! Hopefully the email is delayed, but maybe I didn’t even make it to the SME panel review ?

Is the anonymity email different than the missing references email? If so, I don’t think I received it…

Yeah mine says the same thing. Not sure why the deadline has changed, but I might contact them tomorrow and find out.

Did anyone else get a missing references email? All references had to be submitted by 10/31, so I’m hoping this is another erroneous email.

Did anyone else get an update to the last edited date? Mine was updated 11/25.

Did anyone else apply this year?

I didn't see a thread so I decided to start one! Did anyone else apply this year? This is my first and only time applying. I applied for ONR geosciences.
