Samieru Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Is anyone applying for EAPSI 2016? And does anyone from past years have any advise for us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photonist Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Just Finished applying. It took me two days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciaenops Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Just submitted as well... Starting the waiting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen of Kale Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I applied as well (Japan) and will also be applying to the GROW to go to Japan. I don't think if some miracle occurs and I get both that I can take both - just trying to bolster my odds of being able to collaborate with this person. Anyone else feel wholly unable to assess their application? I feel like with the GRFP there's enough information online and from my peers irl that I could at least build a strong application but here it seems like anyone's guess.

GBinAZ Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Does anybody know if we are contacted at all over the upcoming weeks as a general sort of confirmation that NSF has received our proposal, that it is complete, and that they are reviewing it? This waiting game is no fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhub Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Has anyone heard back yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciaenops Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 No. But if you look at last year's thread. Japan was the first to hear back at the end of January, and the others follows through the beginning of March. Dates of Tentative Offer from last year: Japan - January 29th Australia - February 10th New Zealand - February 24th China - February 26th Singapore - February 27th Korea - March 2nd Taiwan - March 2nd bhub and Queen of Kale 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdevine Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Also waiting on Japan 2016, did not realize notifications could be coming so soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhub Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I also applied for Japan. I think I have a low chance of getting the award because of my project idea but I can't wait to find out!....hopefully Friday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCki3Tina Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Japan + 1 Still waiting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen of Kale Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Also waiting on Japan. While last year they notified at the end of Jan., it looks like the year before it was closer to Valentine's Day, so I am trying not to make myself crazy. (Failing but trying). Good luck everyone!

indigobunting Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) ...Waiting on Japan too. I wonder if the blizzard will cause a delay this year. Edited January 28, 2016 by indigobunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samieru Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Japan for me too! Good luck to all of us! No word yet, haha. What fields of study are all of you in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samieru Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 So, when I go into my proposal status, and then I click on my proposal number I can see review information saying "External Peer Review began on 02/02/16." Perhaps we won't be getting any information today then. Is that any different for anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indigobunting Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Hmmm. Mine still says peer review began on 01/05/16. Also I'm in plant ecology :] Edited January 29, 2016 by indigobunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhub Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) I also applied for Japan, my concentration is aquatic ecology/toxicology and was also sent for peer review on 1/5/16. But in December when I looked at the proposal status it said 'External Review began on 1/5/16'. Edited January 29, 2016 by bhub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samieru Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Ah, I am in Cognitive Science. I do not remember what my external review date said before. Maybe they are reviewing Social/Behavioral applicants later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen of Kale Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Mine says peer review on 02/01/16 - so I second the idea that this might be variable by subject. I am in the Geosciences btw. Samieru 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indigobunting Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Nope, still nothing. This suspense is brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirdBrain Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I applied for Japan, mathematics. It says my external review started today, 2/4. So much suspense!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdevine Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Another day and no news. I applied as an engineer and it said my external review began 1/11/16. Thankfully another busy week of grad school has my mind off the wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhub Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I'm checking this thread everyday to see if anyone heard back! Lol I was hoping to hear back soon, my guess is probably next week. I'd hate to submit an IACUC and find out the next day I didn't even get the award.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishfriendsnotfood Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Hi All- I am also waiting on Japan and just emailed Elena Hillenburg to find out when the orientation weekend will be and she said March 28-29. She also said that tentative acceptances would be sent out by early March, so we probably have a lot more waiting in store. bhub and iCki3Tina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
