Question: If I've already got the NSF (about to finish the 2nd year) and just received the NDSEG, do you know if it's possible to put the NSF on hold for a couple of years and accept the NDSEG?

Yup, I heard back a bit earlier this morning. Applied under heterogeneous computing. The email I got: Dear 2014 NDSEG Applicant, Congratulations! You have been selected to receive a 2014 National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) Fellowship. The NDSEG Fellowship is sponsored and funded by the Department of Defense (DoD). NDSEG selections are made by the Air Force Research Laboratory/Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFRL/AFOSR), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the Army Research Office (ARO). The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) administers the NDSEG Fellowship. If you are unable to accept the fellowship, please provide a brief explanation in the comments section of the award portal. We ask that you please accept or decline yourNDSEG award online at https://ndseg.asee.org/award by Thursday, April 24th at 11:59 p.m. EST. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact ASEE at (202) 649-3831 or by email atNDSEG@asee.org. We will be happy to assist you. Sincerely, The NDSEG Fellowship Program Team at ASEE

Mecasickle, I don't think he's trying to boast. anon1, your overall GPA is on par and your CS GPA is stellar, but most applicants will have this. I'm at UC Berkeley right now, and most people here have the numbers... GRE + GPA. Could you describe here a bit more about what you did in your internships? And as Mecasickle said, could you expound on your research experiences? Most importantly, why do you want to get a Ph.D.? Keep in mind that most places have Ph.D. acceptance rates that are around 5-10% (not sure about other schools, but I know that Berkeley was around 6% and CMU was around 9% in the robotics track). And why do you want to attend Harvard or UCLA (specifically) for computer science... it seems like you're shooting for "name brand" schools across the board, which may not be the right thing to do. For example, you seem to have left out Stanford and MIT for prospective schools.
