caha9192 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Also Alternate Awardee list. Wonder how many alternates there are, and if they did the whole 70 awards/130 alternates like they did last year. Congrats to those who were awarded! scavanaugh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link is https://ndsegfellowships.smapply.org. Using the same username and password used for your application, log in. Under the NDSEG application will be a section labeled “STATUS” with your application status listed beside it. Below is a guide of what each status means: · 1st Round Reviews – SME Panel o Your application was successfully completed and was reviewed during the 1st stage of reviews conducted by Subject Matter Experts in your relevant discipline. Your application did not make the cut to move to the next review stage. · 2nd Round Reviews – DoD Panel o Your application was reviewed during the 1st stage of reviews conducted by Subject Matter Experts in your relevant discipline and moved to the next stage of reviews. These reviews were conducted by Department of Defense personnel.

Your application has been marked as an alternate to receive an NDSEG award. o Note: You will be notified via email if you are, in fact, awarded.

Should you not receive an award this year, we hope you will consider re-applying next year, should you remain eligible. We wish you all the best in your educational pursuits! -The NDSEG Fellowship Team I never even received this email? Where did you find this? Mine says 2nd review round, etc... I don't see why they don't send out a rejection emails to those of us in group "1st round" and "2nd round". Just for the sake of clarity so we can move on with our lives. milka49 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell this to the grad schools that literally never sent me a rejection e-mail but instead waited for their university-wide system to be like "your application has been closed" in May. I had guessed by this point but people are jerks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied back in 2017, and was made an alternate, and never received any comments. I think that was the last year ASEE did it though, so I'm not sure if the new operators do it any differently.

I believe this means I didn't get past the first rounds. Congratulations on the others who got it! Same here. Congrats to the winners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterxyz Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Does anybody know what is involved in each round of the review process? So the first SME round is subject experts validating how well the proposal is written and the second round is the DoD identifying if it is applicable to their work? What does the DoD do in their review round and what do they look for? NeoOzymandias and lambda 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this has some baseline procedures/scoring information here: https://ndseg.asee.org/2017_NDSEG_Guide_For_Panelists.pdf It's from when ASEE ran it, but it seems identical to the four tiers we see, and I don't think SCI-TEC has any actual role in evaluating the applications besides coordinating everything.

urbanecologist Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Ugh, didn't get it, but I knew it was a long shot. "Status: 1st Round Reviews - SME Panel". Thanks to everyone on this thread for explaining how we could find out, because clearly the contractor handling the fellowship doesn't understand how it works, and I never got any sort of email notice.

caha9192 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Is anyone turning down NDSEG for NSF? I got NSF but alternate for NDSEG so wondering if it's worth waiting to see if NDSEG offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they'd let everyone know by the end of April (which I still think is a bit ambitious, but who knows). Unless I'm mistaken, NSF doesn't even send out the link to accept until the 29th, so it could still be a week or two if some NSF+NDSEG winners were waiting for the link to officially turn down NDSEG. But, who knows. Fingers crossed for the both of us! rxn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caha9192 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Could anyone who was awarded NDSEG let us know what the decision deadline for accepting is? I'm waiting to accept NSF in case of the small, small, chance that someone declines NDSEG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, who knows. Fingers crossed for the both of us! Thanks for letting me know and good luck to you too! I'm thinking (hoping) the same thing. I was asking because of bfc's old post which indicates the first round of NDSEG awardees had to decide by April 15: On 3/31/2019 at 7:13 PM, bfc said: In case any of this is useful... I got an acceptance e-mail at 3:05pm Eastern time on March 29. I applied under ONR w/ electrical engineering as my discipline. In my online application portal, there's now a "Fellowship Acceptance Form" under "Your tasks," and the e-mail indicates that this needs to be submitted no later than April 15...so maybe they'll send out another batch after then...? If I understand right, NSF availability to accept on only April 29 was unexpected, so maybe NDSEG pushed back their acceptance deadline making the whole process get pushed back. Of course I'm totally speculating. It's possible that some on the waitlist have been quietly getting updates one at a time and we're somewhere lower on the list. Fingers crossed for our theory though haha scavanaugh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecologist Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Would anyone that was awarded the fellowship in 2019 be willing to share their application essays with me? I am applying this year and cannot find any sample essays with the new format online. Any examples or advice would be much appreciated :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katz465 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 For anyone who applied and won, would you kindly share for the research essay, did you include your previous research experience or ONLY your current proposal? if the latter, did you put your research experience in the 500 word statement then? Thank you kindly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
