APIASF Scholarship 2008

<p>I got Gates Finalist but have yet to heard from APIASF. I hope I hear from them soon!</p>

<p>I am a finalist for GMS and APIASF ...do we need to fax these documents twice? i emailed this lady and she said she will get back to me once she verifies it w/ GMS but she hasn't contacted me....</p>

<p>yes you do, I just receive an email from them this morning and they said they can't use GMS papers because of security issues or something....so yeah, fax twice</p>

<p>thanks...but since the fax number is same, do i need to make a coverpage saying that it is for apiasf not gates?</p>

<p>I would use the letter that came with APIASF as the cover page, since I used the GMS letter as a cover page</p>

<p>ok thanks! i'll do that also...</p>

<p>so i guess if you haven't got an email...you're not a finalist and needs to get on with your life? thanks</p>

<p>don't give up yet! my friend hasn't received her yet...and i believe that her essays were way better than mine and her gpa is better than mine also, so she might get a notification later this week...not sure...i don't know how they select finalists. i mean, she is way better than me but she hasn't received any notification...</p>

<p>Woot! I'm an APIASF finalist too! =)</p>

<p>what is the probability of winning apiasf?<br>
i bet it is way lower than winning gates...</p>

<p>Why do you think it is way lower?</p>

<p>I didn't apply for gates because I didn't qualify financially.</p>

<p>idk...i just think that..mayb cuz gates is a full tuition and more ppl apply to it...then again, idk
isn't "need" considered in apiasf also? im not sure</p>

<p>has anyone been notified if they won or not? when do we find that out? b4 may, right?</p>

<p>i never got notified but i got Gates :)</p>

<p>seriously...when do we find out...i fax in my stuff with gates...</p>

<p>I called and they said end of April/beginning of May.</p>

<p>oh thanks mr. tang! aren't u waiting for the gates one also?? i still have to fax my SAR and acceptance letter to apiasf b/c apparently they didn't get mine but gates did...idk what the deal is but i'll fax them again tomorrow</p>

<p>Yeah I had to fax mine a couple of times too.</p>

<p>hello...
so i got my letter from APIASF....i didn't get the scholarship...i wonder if it was influence by my Gates scholarship...i don't feel bad...but was wondering if anyone got both the Gates and the APIASF scholarship....</p>

<p>no ahhhhhhhhh, we can't get apiasf and gates at the same time. i asked the gms ppl and they said that u will get the scholarship that is worth more and gates definitely is worth more (in most cases if not all).
i haven't gotten any notification yet. i faxed in all my info w/ gates. oh well, i don't need it.</p>
