Do you think the holiday on Friday (Cesar Chavez) will impact it?

...isn't that next Thursday? Assuming that the NSF sticks with Tuesdays/Fridays, we should be fine.

I think they will be posted tomorrow

I hope you are correct! If it continues to follow the past trends though my bet is Friday

Oh okay I haven’t looked at past trends but Friday seems like a good guess

The fact that the award list Excel sheet is downloadable but empty keeps spiking my blood pressure (yes I have downloaded it three times in the last hour).

Hmm, looks like the award list for 2021 isn't active anymore.

Very strange. I wonder if this is part of some sort of testing that they run before website maintenance/posting results.

The Excel sheet is also blank for the year 2021.

I guess it would be safer to test any technical difficulties on an old set of awardees, but that's still really weird.

Quick question for everyone that's applied before how did the feedback help your application this year? Also, anyone else in the social sciences category ??

[AnotherComplainingGradStud]

Any previous applicants have the URL from when they received their status update or application reviews? Tryna see somethin ?

Last cycle I applied (life sciences), one of my reviewers said I needed to better integrate my broader impacts across both documents because my previous submission had two essentially independent broader impacts sections. This cycle, the sections are much more complementary and cohesive. We’ll see what “reviewer 3” thinks this year ?

I looked on the application page, and it removed the link to withdraw the application.  It had been up for a long while.

The maintenance windows were never this short... yeah? Shortest I've seen thus far is 2 hours, but maybe they worked something out?

Yeah, I'm also not convinced this is it. From what I saw in prior years' threads, usually the maintenance notification for the results is on the GRFP login page and explicitly says that GRFP is down. We figured out that the bottom notification is just weekly maintenance, but I doubt that the top notification is significant.

Starting to suspect next Tuesday is the day, tbh.

Just want to confirm that everyone will be notified of results, whether or not they received the award?

Correct. Everyone should receive an email containing their result, regardless of whether they received an award, honorable mention, or nothing.

@differentfrommyredditname My feedback was almost completely useless. Got high marks from first two reviewers with very minimal comments, third reviewer left praising comments but poor scores... I still ended up making a ton of changes but had very little guidance to go off of

[Ccbea]

Soooooo is it gonna be tonight/tomorrow morning or Monday night/Tuesday morning. I am dying to know ??

[happyhalogen17]

Looking forward to hearing back as well, but I feel like the results are going to come out early next week, especially if we're going by what has happened in previous years - would be open to being surprised tomorrow though 0:)

In the case that nothing is posted within the next 24 hours or so, we can survive another few days if we've already survived 5 months - best of luck everyone!
