AKJen Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 They should be making the first cut within the next two weeks. I'm a little bit nervous because I found an error on my cover sheet. But it wasn't a budget problem, so I'm hoping it's overlooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthroChick Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I applied too... I'm anxiously awaiting to hear on the results for the 2nd cut!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthro14 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Do we know how many they take in the first cut (percentage wise)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomer Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 We should hear this month the results of the first cut. I'm not sure how many percentage-wise makes it to the second round. My husband made it last year to the second round, but didn't get the fellowship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKJen Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) According to their website, about 50% of applications make the first cut: Stage One: Applications are screened against the General Criteria for Evaluation. All applicants will be notified as to whether or not they are successful at this stage, generally 3 months after the deadline. Approximately 50% of all applications are successful at this stage Stage Two: Successful applications are sent to an external panel for academic review. Applicants will be notified within 6-8 months of the original application deadline. Approximately 33% of Stage Two applications are successful I'm already planning my reapplication. I just want to get some feedback at this point. Edited February 4, 2013 by jennyb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferret Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Does anyone know, how long they are sending out the results of the first cut? Only one day or more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKJen Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 ferret, I'm not sure, but check your spam folder. Gmail put mine in there and I only saw it because I was looking for something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferret Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Has anyone else got a budget revision request? Do you know what it means? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKJen Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 No budget revision request here, ferret. Was it a revision request or did they request information about what other funding you've received? Because I know the latter is a very good sign. If they've asked about your other sources of funding, it generally means you're being seriously considered.

They only asked to eliminate the part, which I do not expect them to cover, but included to show that I do take it into account and expect it to be covered from other sources. So I guess they just revise the budget before sending the project to external commitee to make sure that generally speaking this project is doable in terms of funding--so that they do not have to make people read the whole thing if it does not fit in general.

AKJen Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 It could still be a good sign, ferret! At least they are allowing you to make revisions instead of tossing the application out. We're still in this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niebla Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Does anyone know if April is the month when they will let us know who got it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKJen Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 The past few years, they've notified rejections and likely funded folks on Mondays and Tuesdays around the 9th of April. The official acceptance comes soon after by mail. My guess is it'll be in the next 10 days or so. Can't come soon enough! I just want enough time to reapply, if need be.

AKJen Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Not in spam this time, but from funding decision. If you get the almost certain acceptance email, it should come from funding review. How many reviews do people usually get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
