Awards

[jaf1324]

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up, I logged into my SMART profile and it notified me that I had been awarded the scholarship. Go check it out and see if they have your awards up yet.

[SillyQuestion]

Jaf,

Does the award come up in your notifications bell on the main page when you login?

Thanks

[Anon1776]

Has anyone confirmed this? I'm not seeing any changes to the application status page

[eppcee]

I just checked, and can't seem to find an accepted or rejected message... Maybe they're rolling them out, or maybe this is just a bad sign. I guess I just have to wait for the email to know

Did anybody get multiple offers in there portal that was awarded?

[nervous]

This is probably just me grasping at straws, but for people who listed the facility they got, it was on the west coast and it was a marine or navy facility.

Has anyone gotten an award from an army or air force facility, or one not on the west coast?

I'm a mechanical engineer and I got an award from an Army Facility in Virginia.

FYI, I was able to login earlier and see that I got the award, but now it does not show up.

[Guest]

Same! They must've caught on and disabled it. Maybe they aren't ready to roll out all awards yet. It is suppose to come out April 5th.

Same here, I'm guessing it was accidentally released because it was dated April 5th, but it's still eases some of that tension.

Unfortunately, I did not login earlier today so I'm still sitting in suspense!

Yes, I just logged in and my SF is Headquarters Air Force/Studies, Analyses, and Assessments at the Pentagon in Arlington, VA. I was an OR PhD applicant. Best of luck to you.

I think something similar has happened in past years. It's going to be what it is, and we'll all know eventually:-)

Yes, The same thing happened to me. I saw I received an award, but now it has been disabled. I wonder if they are adding into the portal if you received multiple offers.
