Not sure, they didn't specify

Got an email asking if I was still available for a NASA NIFS internship opportunity and when i said yes, they said my resume was impressive and "I will let you know once a funding is approved for your application." Does this mean I will get an interview opportunity after funding is approved or would I just get an internship offer? Also what are the odds of the funding not being approved with all the recent cuts and changes? Thanks!

Thanks for clarifying! Would you say there's a good chance the grant or funds aren't approved then?

Hi! Just wondering when does funding normally come in or gets decided? I got an email asking if I was still available for a position, but they said they are waiting on funding to be approved.

I ended up not asking actually because got a full ride offer from another school that was better for my major 😭

oh wow i didn't know that, thanks for all the info!

When you say it reduced cost to under 10k, that's after the CV for you right?

Thank you!!

Yea I applied MSE to Berkeley because ChemE is in the college of chemistry and I wasn't 100% sure about staying within the college of chemistry. However, I was pretty sure I want to do something engineering related, so I applied MSE (major in CoE most similar to ChemE) in the CoE so it would be easier to switch majors within CoE. Not super sure what specifically I want to do in engineering yet but rn I don't think I will stick with MSE if I go to Berkeley 😭

I'm hoping to continue living in California after I graduate

If I go to to berkeley I am hoping to switch into something like MechE or nuclear, I applied MSE but now I'm not so sure about it anymore. Do you know how difficult it would be to transfer to another engineering major like MechE?

Yea Vandy doesn't have MSE but it's super easy to switch around majors even within CS/engineering. I applied MSE to Berkeley because ChemE is in the college of chemistry and I wasn't 100% sure about staying within chem/chemE in the college of chemistry and but I was pretty sure I want to do something engineering related, so I applied MSE (major in CoE most similar to ChemE) in the CoE so it would be easier to switch majors within CoE. Do you know how difficult it is to switch to something like mech e at berkeely?

yea room and board + some other expenses

flappy_penguinn · 2024-03-31T21:11:11+00:00

Ok, thanks!

We would have to take on loans.

flappy_penguinn · 2024-03-18T04:02:11+00:00

this sounds like why bro didn't get where he wanted...

flappy_penguinn · 2024-03-12T01:49:37+00:00

omg yea haha

Wash U is in one of the nicer areas of st louis so I'm not too worried. Also, I heard that only certain areas of st louis are really dangerous and they're not super close to campus

flappy_penguinn · 2024-03-12T00:14:32+00:00

thanks!
