Does anyone remember when awards were announced in previous years?

Did anyone get an accept email, or were they all rejects?

Just got the reject email.

So, what if this happens the other way? If you are accidentally rejected, how will you ever find out?

Great, so just like how decisions were supposed to be released the second week of April? Getting ready for another "We are pleased to inform you that we are still considering you" email.

So.... is there any new news to be had? Or are people starting to give up hope?

So.... Any idea when NDSEG will release more information?

Got the email saying still being considered. Computer Science. I was super excited with the "We are pleased to" but then saw "still being considered" and I was all "WTF?" Who the hell writes a sentence like that? It's like if your boyfriend/girlfriend were to say "We need to talk... Nutter-butters are a seriously underrated cookie."

I think you have to use 3 years of funding within a 5 year window. So yes, you can defer for two years, as long as you're making progress on your graduate studies. But don't quote me on this, check with NSF.

Can people post if they applied and heard back yet, with whether or not they were accepted?

Then we should hear by Friday then, right?

Also, second week of April is this week right, even though April started on a Tuesday?

I want to know already. I was good at keeping my cool so far until NSF results came out. Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

It's been shown that women (and I believe minorities) are more self-selecting.

Not you. I'm addressing the people that have been saying things like: "omg I can't believe why my reviewers were too thick to understand how awesome I am." Granted, that is a minority response on this thread, but I really don't like it.
