A desirable feature of models with large extra dimensions and a TeV range string scale is the possibility to understand an ultralight sterile neutrino needed for a simultaneous understanding of solar, atmospheric and LSND results as a Kaluza-Klein state of a bulk neutrino. How these oscillation data are understood in quantitative detail is still not clear. We have recently suggested a new way to understand the solar neutrino data in this framework by a combination of vacuum and small angle MSW transition of $\nu_e$ to sterile KK modes of the bulk neutrino. This mechanism can be embedded into an economical extension of the standard model in the brane to understand the atmospheric and LSND data. After a brief discussion of how small neutrino masses arise naturally in extra dimensional models, we review this new suggestion.
