2011 Horatio Alger Scholarship Thread

<p>^ Not exactly. Even if they did stop giving out the national scholarships today (which I doubt) you can still qualify for the state scholarships, which are usually around 10k. State scholarships are announced later (national and state have the same app).</p>

<p>congrats bork and topramen!</p>

<p>are y’all both from the east coast?</p>

<p>I’m from NY, so yes. I never really had the chance to attend school in FL, although I lived there for a brief period of time. But that’s still the East Coast.</p>

<p>We’ll see where all the national scholars are from soon enough.</p>

<p>Hi! I’m a Mom and my daughter received a phone call yesterday saying she was a National Scholar. We are still numb :slight_smile: Anyway, we are in South Carolina. Thought I’d share that and see if anyone else from South Carolina was a National Scholar. Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Wow 3 out of 104 NATIONAL scholars on one CC thread. That’s a CC record.</p>

<p>4 out of 104!
I was called yesterday and notified that I’m also a 2011 National Horatio Alger Scholar! I’m estatic!</p>

<p>What state are you from?</p>

<p>California here, and considering that it’s a big state, I didn’t figure that I would make state or much less, nationals! Excited to meet you all in DC!</p>

<p>I know how excited you are - congratulations!! Does anyone know what state Xcollegebound is from?</p>

<p>I’m from Dallas, TX!</p>

<p>Wow - congrats to Texas, CA, and NY!</p>

<p>this thread is officially depressing for me lol</p>

<p>congrats to everyone though! :)</p>

<p>Congrats everyone! I did not receive any calls unfortunately. But did they send you an email as well? and did they say when they would be posted on the website?</p>

<p>Did get an email also. Didn’t say when it would be posted. They could still have people to contact and don’t forget about the State awards also.</p>

<p>Congrats MOMSAT, xcollegexboundx, and topramennbaklava! And congrats to SC as well! Hopefully, we’ll all see each other in DC.</p>

<p>Don’t lose hope. I don’t know whether or not they are still announcing the scholars, but it is a possibility. Keep in mind that it’s the weekend. And yes, I got the email and phone call on the same day. Last year this was done after the posted the results up online. </p>

<p>The state scholars should be announced like 2-3 weeks later (at least that’s how it was like last year). Those scholarships usually range from 5-10k.</p>

<p>I did not ask when they would be posted up on the website; I’ll try to ask on Monday if I can get home early.</p>

<p>Just stopping by to say good luck to everyone. I remember finding out I was a Franklin scholar last year and it rocked my world. :)</p>

<p>The list is up!! Click on Scholarship Programs and then the 1st item on the left sidebar.</p>

<p>MOMSAT is my mom hahahahahaha! Are yall on facebook?? I’ve been trying to find people all day and I haven’t had much luck :(</p>

<p>When do the results for State schlarships come out?</p>

<p>I logged on to my online application and I saw that my application is now accessible again for editing. There is now a deadline for April 11th. Can I reapply? Has that happened to anyone else? When will state scholars be announced?</p>
