i did and cannot wait to hear back! counting days ..

my status says recommended since december and april seems so far!!!

I did too. Don't see it as likely at all because my profile isn't nearly as good as the past winners.

How do they notify the winners? Do finalists get interviewed?

Ahhhh still waiting and checking many times daily ... i really need to get it!!!

Wish my status will change to Reviewed though ..

do not lose hope, you never know ...

Yea, i guess they get interviewed .. and they post one paragraph or two about them with their photo online ..

April 15 is soon .. count down ..

wish you the best of luck .. rolleyes.gif

I've added this info in both posts about AAUW.

I contacted AAUW re status changes, here's their response:

"the status will never change. Once the application form is closed (lodged), the online status does not change."

So, that's that - no use checking madly at 4am for an update. Come on April 15!

Interesting, how come some applicants said their status did change from recommended to reviewed?

Thanks for the info!

I guess, I will stop checking the status, the shock will be easier to contain if I do not get it, which is most likely, last year around 1200 applied for it and only around 40 got it, so ...

Can't explain other experiences.

Yes, the odds are long for this one.

9 days for the results!!!cool.gif

Woohoo! Any idea how we will be notified?

It seems, based on last year's forum, that the results were posted online on April 15th. Has anyone heard anything different?

Posted

I've convinced myself that they haven't received one of my transcripts, and I will never know. Completely irrational. I wish they had an online checklist!

Posted

Exactly! Everything will be posted online on the 15th.

I do not think I am gonna get it though ... more than 1250 competing over 40 fellowships ..

ahh!!!

Posted

sorry :(

if they have not received your trans..., your status will be incomplete.

check it.

no- the status pertains only to their receipt of recommendations. if you take a look at the status page, you will notice that they say "we are unable to confirm status of supporting documents" .. that's why i am being irrational. we will never know whether we got rejected because a piece of our app was missing or because we didn't make it.

well, then you should have used Fedex--tracking your documents. This is what I did and I know they got all my documents!

That's what I did too..

Come on! I am joking here! Don't you have irrational fears like that? Such as that your transcript got dropped under someone's desk and never made it's way to your file??

8 more days!

Unfortunately, the status will never change to reviewed. Once the application form is closed, the online status does not change. <br style=line-height: 1.2em; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; "><br style="line-height: 1.2em; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial; outline-color: initial; ">Notification of awards will be mailed to all applicants on, April 15, 2011 via regular mail.

They send a letter in the mail to everyone who applied and post the winners names online. Nerve-wracking!
