White House Internship

HI- I got a rejection email 2 days ago. Just so you know they are coming

@riguy12 Sorry to hear about that. They are taking applications for fall. I know that might not be want you want to hear but no reason why you might not get excepted in fall. If I get rejected that’s my plan… Thanks for letting us know.

When did you get that email? @whsummer2015‌

4 weeks ago

Anyone hear any news?

Nothing here since my interview 3 weeks ago. No DR forms, no APE, no rejection.

What is APE?

APE=Application Processing Email. Basically just an update saying you’re app is still in process.

DR forms and APE, but no interview here.

Any news out there? Now in week 3 of notifications, well allegedly…

Nothing on my end. I have a feeling I’ll hear something in early April.

@Bootstrapping1 The suspense it killing me! Also, need to start apartment hunting if I am lucky enough to get a spot! :0

@mollywine11 I feel you. I find that I’m either totally consumed with suspense, or I remind myself that there is a <10% acceptance rate and I try to forget about it. haha.

@Bootstrapping1 I am not typically one to make assumptions, but if there have already been a couple applicants posting on here that they have been rejected (one as early as March 17th), then I am cautiously optimistic…

@mollywine11 way to go with the optimism…I’m more skeptical, but all we can do is wait.

@Bootstrapping1 Now it is almost as if it’s the quiet before the storm… No one else is posting here :frowning:

We’re around! Just silently checking day after day…

Same, nothing to report so…

I received my APE on March 16th and I have received no further communication. Am I out? I have not been contacted for an interview nor background checks.

@nm12296 See previous posts. People may receive DR forms and interviews very very late into the application process as technically the last day they can accept you is the day before the internship starts.

Are the DR forms just basic information like name, social security, birtbday, etc or more extensive security clearance forms?
