Not KaffeeCafe, but mine only had my name and major field, so I checked yes and just added the other fields. I am almost positive I put this information down in my original application though, especially my current institution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campuscat Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 @hkcool Mine as well, I clicked "No" haha. I definitely included it in my original application... Not sure if I should go back and update it to "Yes" and fill in the empty fields... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

campuscat Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 @Sunfish17 okay, cool! They emailed me back and said if nothing has changed to select "no" and leave them blank. But I don't think it really matters if people just re-entered their info... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easytiger Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Did anyone else not receive the email about updated education information? I've had to ask them to resend each of the past emails, so I suspect that the same thing happened this time, but the lady answering the phone at STI-Tec is super unhelpful.

Behavecol Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 So I got denied outright from NDSEG but does anyone know if they give you reviewer comments from when it went through the initial panel? I’d like to know what they thought and how I can improve for next years application. kwisco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenDog Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 16 minutes ago, Behavecol said: That’s unfortunate...? To be fair, the application materials have been different until this current year. Previous years required a very small, one page personal statement. Its possible they provide some feedback later, but don't get your hopes up. It cant hurt to email STI.

They probably won't actually give you much info. As another student, I'm happy to look at your app if you are planning on applying again next year.

Phancy_Physicist Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I called yesterday after I saw the March 16th announcement and saw nothing in my spam or junk folders. They said they were gonna finish all of the emails next week. So i'll just sit here anxiously waiting to see if I moved on or not. My advisor said no news is sometimes good news!

They seem kind of disorganized lol. If the final panel review ended yesterday, surely they must already have two lists of applicants corresponding to who moved on and who didn't, and it should just be a matter of emailing those lists all at once...

runrabbit Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Has anyone else received the January email, but neither the March DoD panel update around 3/16 nor the education information email this week? I checked my spam folders diligently, and I’ve called and emailed multiple times. The STI-NDSEG team has been so unhelpful and said they would get back to me, but I haven’t heard anything. Basically I’m just concerned that something was wrong with my application and I won’t ever hear from them with my result....any thoughts/info on this?

Hi, I got the January email, but nothing in March, so you aren't the only one in that boat. When I called they said they are still sending out notifications. I'm gonna look at it as a positive, maybe we're awardees? We wait with baited breathe till this coming week... runrabbit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliosHarg Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I received the January email, but nothing in March as well. I tried emailing them, but have received no reply. I think perhaps that I messed up my application somehow and it was thrown out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenDog Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Lol, as previously mentioned, NDSEG said DOD would get back to them on March 31.
