<p>Any word yet on who made it as a CSULB President's Scholar?</p>
<p>Expect decisions to be sent out in April.</p>
<p>That’s what I figured - but was hoping maybe they would be in March this year!</p>
<p>Hey jburk, have you heard anything from CSULB yet? Letters were supposed to be sent out this week but I haven’t heard anything yet.</p>
<p>Got waitlisted.</p>
<p>"…After reviewing more than 600 applicants from California’s best and brighest… we were faced with the difficult task of selecting approximately 30 candidates to receive the award. I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you a scholarship at this time, however, we would like to include you on our President’s Scholars wait list."</p>
<p>Sorry scorpion that’s too bad. Would you mind sharing your stats? Do you live close to the school?
Best of luck with the waitlist! Do you still think you’ll go to long beach?</p>
<p>swimmer: I’m not considering CSULB without the scholarship (it’s a bit cheaper for me to go to UCLA if I’m calculating my financial aid correctly).</p>
<p>Since my stats have been posted elsewhere -
SAT- 2010; W,R,M-670
ACT-31 (don’t think I sent in my ACT score, though)
Quite a few extracurriculars such as Mock Trial, Academic Decathlon, Varsity Tennis.
Not a lot of community service.
Okay-ish essays.</p>
<p>I forgot if we had to include our AP test scores or academics and which AP tests we’ve passed… (passed 5 AP tests with scores of 3, 4, 4, 5, 5) and am currently taking a courseload of 6 AP classes + 1 “normal class” but I guess this is on the transcript anyways…</p>
<p>and UW GPA of 4.0</p>
<p>Okay recs from a CSULB alumni and a teacher with a PhD.</p>
<p>Thanks. Ucla is a great school what are you planning on majoring in?</p>
<p>Hi I’m new to this CC stuff, so hope I’m doing this right…Do you live guys live by LB? I really want to hear back from the program already…</p>
<p>No, I live in the Sacramento area, and I haven’t heard back either. The wait is killing me.</p>
<p>Oh and sorry about the wait list scorpios! UCLA is pretty awesome and Yeah >.> I need to hear back soon since I have to reply to another program by next week…</p>
<p>Well hopefully you hear back before then! Do you live close to long beach? Or farther north?</p>
<p>I live right smack in the middle of California haha (Fresno) is csulb your first choice?</p>
<p>Long beach with the presidential scholarship is definitely my first choice. You?</p>
<p>Same here…I won’t go there without it, oh and something scorpions said made me kind of nervous…was there more than one essay?</p>
<p>If I remember right there was only one essay. I was a little worried when he said that too.</p>
<p>Woops accidental double post.</p>
<p>Okay XD good…and it’s okay haha what do you want to major in? Oh did you go to the visit they scheduled? I really think they should schedule those after they tell us if we made it or not…</p>
<p>Yeah I did, I actually really liked the tour and campus. Did you? I’m majoring in aerospace engineering but I’m hoping to double major. I think the tour might’ve been a way for them to judge how serious you are about the program. What are you majoring in?</p>
<p>I’m thinking civil engineering and I am tempted to double major also XD but I’ve heard it’s suicide if you go into engineering. I figured >.> I am afraid I came across as wishy washy since I signed up but couldn’t go…were there a lot of people?</p>
