cephnerd Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 To those of you who have received letters, are they coming with reviews this year?

I applied to NSF and NDSEG, are there more that are open to nondiverse STEM majors currently in grad school? (Other than Hertz)

But if it's any consolation, that one had the roughest stats of any. 65 awardees from over 1800 apps. Edited April 13, 2018 by Phancy_Physicist KD35 1
KD35 Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Seems like a ton of people still haven’t heard. I’m not ready to say this is good news for us, because I haven’t seen enough rejections today to make me think that we all won the thing (there should be like 6x as many rejections today as winners if indeed 40% become finalists). I guess I might call in a few hours if there is still no news. This is just so frustrating, waiting til the second week of April was bad enough, now this. (I’ll take back all my complaining if I win, but I don’t think that’s going to happen.)

Also, I thought the program was recently extended to four years? This seems weird, according to the FAQ on the site it should be four... If its just three, I care alot less since I have NSF already.

runrabbit Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Two of my coworkers just got rejection emails that said they were in the top 200 applicants, but due to budget cuts they only selected 69 this year.
mana_chique Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 Okay, this stress finally made me create an account so I could contribute- anyway, I haven't received an email yet either. I'm in Mountain Time. Received all past emails just fine, and nothing in my spam either.
