<p>Did anyone else apply to this program? If so, did you get a confirmation email after you submitted the application? Applicants from previous years have, which makes me worried because I didn't...</p>
<p>I didn’t either! But my account shows that I completed the application, so I’m assuming it’s all good… but it still worries me.</p>
<p>Oh, well, if you didn’t either then maybe they send them after the deadline? Or maybe they won’t at all this year. When you view your app, do you have a score too? Mine says 12 and the average score is 12, which is strange because I’m pretty sure when I turned in my app, it said 0. Suspicious…</p>
<p>Mine still says 0 with an average score of 0! Okay now I am really scared…</p>
<p>when did you submit your app? it might just take awhile. Like I said, mine was 0 for a bit, too.</p>
<p>I applied too! And no, I didn’t get a confirmation email yet either… Did any of you send samples? I didn’t know how many to send since they didn’t specify so I just sent as much as I could.</p>
<p>Dovily, I submitted mine yesterday (nothing like waiting until the last minute!). When did you submit? </p>
<p>HappyNerd, I sent samples! I uploaded the first one to the website (do you think that is okay?) And then the additional ones I emailed. I sent five additional ones because that was how many slots there were on the online form, but now that I think about it, I wish I would have sent more How many did you send?</p>
<p>Did you guys submit a video?</p>
<p>Haha, that’s probably why then. I submitted mine last week. I didn’t send a video because my video editing skills are basically nonexistent. I did send samples though, around 5 or 6. I didn’t know how many to send either.</p>
<p>Oh I see! Good that we sent around the same number of samples. Good luck to you! We’ll have to keep this thread updated… can’t wait for results to be out (even though I literally just applied)!</p>
<p>This is awkward… I sent 10 of them! >.< I didn’t do a video, but I’m wondering how much that actually hurts my app or how much it would’ve helped it.</p>
<p>Amplified, did you submit a video?</p>
<p>HappyNerd, I think that should be fine. As long as it’s not 30, you should be in the clear. </p>
<p>Good luck to you both! When do you think results will be released? My guess is sometime mid-April. Maybe early may?</p>
<p>Yeah, 10 isn’t too many! I’m sure that will be fine. </p>
<p>I don’t think that not doing a video will hurt your app. I feel like videos could do more harm than good. I did do a video, though.</p>
<p>I’m thinking mid-April to early May, as well! Best of luck :)</p>
<p>I applied, but this was a last minute thing since I found it ten days ago and I submitted 4 samples. I didn’t get a confirmation email either. Anyone know when the results come out?</p>
<p>thinkblot, I’m not completely sure. My best guess is mid-April.</p>
<p>Did any of you apply to other summer programs in addition to JCamp?</p>
<p>I only sent in 2 sample essays…is that bad?
I also didn’t submit a video. I didn’t know that people did that to boost their app…I really liked my essays though! IDK ughh and there was no spot to place our SAT scores or anything, so why were people on CC talking about thta in older threads?</p>
<p>2 sample essays? Do you mean the essays regarding the assigned prompts? Or did you send in additional essays? I sent in some of my old articles. Regardless, two shouldn’t signal an automatic rejection. The extra samples help further demonstrate your writing ability to the committee. So if you sent in a range of samples, it just gives them more to base your skill off of. </p>
<p>Test scores may have been required in past JCamp applications. Or perhaps they mentioned it because some schools include test scores in their transcripts and, even now, the application requires a transcript.</p>
<p>I see…thanks. I just made a video for my application lol. Ahhhhh I can’t wait till results come out.</p>
<p>Does anyone know the significance of the score/average score? The average was 13.00 and my score was 25.00…</p>
<p>Not sure but I think it has to do with how many items you entered… Unless if its an actual score GASP</p>
<p>Since you mentioned it, I rechecked my app and mine says 23 with the average score being 11. My score last time I checked was 12… It sort of worries me. I don’t know the real significance of it, especially now since it changed.</p>
