Has anyone heard back from SULI yet?

I applied for the Fall 2020 internships with LANL as my first choice and have yet to hear anything in reply. My status still says "Application complete and pending."

I don't know if there's a wait list or if I wasn't accepted or if COVID is slowing things down but it's actually killing me lol

I originally applied to the Summer 2020 SULI session. I accepted an offer from Oak Ridge that I received in the first week of the notification period. COVID happened so I deferred my appointment to the Fall. I was given priority placement and ended up getting an offer again from Oak Ridge about a week ago. I received the same offer email again today (I even had to strangely re-accept) which was likely just a bug in their application system. LANL is very competitive and receives a lot of applicants. That, COVID-19, and prioritizing people who deferred their applications to the Fall is likely contributing to the delay. I wouldn't worry much at all yet. I suggest you try emailing the director of the educational development program of the lab(s) when the deadline for offers is approaching.

If you have any further questions you think I may be able to answer I'd be more than happy to help. Best of luck!
