I'm just saying that the fact it wasn't a rejection still means that I am still in the running, so I am keeping my hopes and positivity up! I am not fixated on trying to find out today. refreshingmyemail 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not see it in this year's post though... Just logged in to my Ford account, and it still says the results will be out in a week or two.

Physicsisphysics Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 The fellowship listed on Academic Wiki is for the Ford Dissertation Fellowship, but I assume a lot of people in here are talking about the Ford Predoctoral Fellowship. That could be the source of confusion. But no news from my end either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raymondnorth Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Just to follow up on an earlier post of mine where I suggested decision emails were likely to be sent out on a Friday... While that may be true for other fellowships, it's definitely not the case for Ford. To keep my mind occupied amidst all the other stuff going on, I went through the past several years of the "Dissertation Fellowships" wiki—this year's is here: https://academicjobs.wikia.org/wiki/Dissertation_Fellowships_2020-2021. Here's the breakdown of when awards were announced in previous years. These are for the dissertation fellowship, but I think (?) all emails are sent on the same day: 3/15/2019 (Friday) 3/28/2018 (Wednesday) 3/22/2017 (Wednesday) 3/29/2016 (Tuesday) 3/27/2015 (Friday) It'll be any day now, and that's exciting—just trying to remind myself that whether it's one day or the next matters little in the grand scheme of things.

Asmaa Elsayed Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I do feel a bit under the weather, guys : ( I am usually "let it be" kinda gal but all my conferences (6) were cancelled and it was my first year as a doctoral student to start presenting my research, I am was very proud and excited: / Then all classes moved online, I haven't seen my friends in a while, I really miss them. I don't have a family around to call. But I feel very grateful I have a home and health insurance in these times. Please, send good vibes and prayers you like. I really hope they can relieve our stress and just let us know. It has been a lot already.

Iced decaf americano Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 @Asmaa Elsayed I read on a few academic blogs that you could put those Cancelled conferences on your CV with an asterisk. At the bottom you can say, "*accepted and prepared but Cancelled due to Coronvirus precautions." Hang in there. EagleEye602 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosiebop Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Do any of you think that any of the COVID-19 shutdowns will affect or delay the notifications for Ford? Would they tell us or just notify us late... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
