Has anyone heard if they got selected to be a finalist yet?
I haven’t yet.
Nothing here!
I’m a semifinalist and am also waiting. It will most likely come out tomorrow.
No word yet over here. Anyone??
Nothing here
OMG this waiting is the worst! Nothing here, either.
The last email I got (to alert me that I was a semifinalist) I got at 4:30…
I was thinking we would hear something at 4:30, too. But nothing yet.
Anything anyone? Bueler? Bueler?
Bueller’s sick 
Are they not telling us today, do we think?
My daughter said that the finalists would be named by today. I don’t know if they are going to let those who didn’t advance know, it would seem cruel to not. I understand why they didn’t advise all the applicants who didn’t make the first cut because that is such a big pool.
I honestly don’t think I have ever been this nervous in my life, and I have had tons of practice waiting to hear results on things. It’s harder when it’s your kid.
My child received a finalist email about 30 minutes. There are 56 finalists according to the email. It did say that if kids chose to decline that spots will be offered to other kids so that could be the reason for not receiving an email of non-advancement at this point.
nothing here.
Havent heard anything either…guess that means I just didn’t advance ? Any kind of word would be nice though
@gogetit1 Was there a deadline by which your child had to accept or decline?
@shortfluff I agree, they should notify everyone, even those who didn’t advance. I am sure you are an incredible student-don’t take it too hard if you don’t advance. You are already admitted to UT which is a huge accomplishment and the Texas Exes have lots and lots of other scholarships. You will be fine 
There are other opportunities:
Are your scholarships need-based or merit-based scholarships?
The Forty Acres Scholars Program is a merit-based, full-ride scholarship. Our 600+ other scholarships range from need-based to merit-based and offer a wide range of supplemental funding from $500-$15,000.
