<p>I applied a few weeks ago, I was curious, when should I find out, like aprilish or is it earlier if you apply earlier (rolling admissions-esq)...thanks.</p>
<p>They will notify you if your a semi-finalist for the presidents scholarship in mid-December. If you don't make that cut i believe they still send you a letter to let you know your status, but they definitely put you into their regular decisions pool which sends decisions by mid march ussually. It appears like applying before October 31st might speed it up a little bit...but i'd still expect by mid march...they like to send their letters all out around the same time.</p>
<p>Alright cool, thanks a lot for the info.</p>
<p>Last year my son applied in October. He did not make Presidential Scholar semi-finalist, but got his letter admitting him to Ga Tech prior to Christmas. I know they say they send most letter by mid-March, but some do come earlier.</p>
<p>Wow, that's awesome...thanks for the info!</p>
<p>That's awesome! I'm gonna hope...but i guess i can't get my hopes up.</p>
<p>Last year my good friend applied in October and did not make Presidential Scholar semi-finalist, but, recived admitting letter on January 17.</p>
<p>i applied on october 30 and just got my acceptance letter today. i don't know if i am a semifinalist or not yet.</p>
<p>Congratulations You're a Yellow Jacket!</p>
<p>i'm assuming you guys got your letters today?</p>
<p>what did they look like?</p>
<p>it is big yellow packet that looked kind of like marketing materials with a big "congratulations" and pictures on the front.</p>
<p>DD applied online on October 29th and got her acceptance today!!! </p>
<p>Here's what Georgia Tech's website says on the Presidential Scholarship page:</p>
<p>"Update on 2007 PS competition
Over 4,250 students from across the nation (and a few overseas) applied by the Oct. 31 deadline. We will notify applicants on a rolling basis as they are chosen as semifinalists. Notification of acceptance to Georgia Tech will be sent separately from President's Scholarship correspondence. Applicants who are not chosen as semifinalists will be notified on or around December 15 by letter."</p>
<p>I applied October 29th too and just got my acceptance today.</p>
<p>No news about the presidential scholarship though</p>
<p>My S applied on line OOS on 10/12 and re-took the SAT on 10/14. His transcript (yeah, I know they don't need it) and recommendation letters were mailed on 10/25. He was accepted on 11/20 by mail, "You're a Yellow Jacket" 2007 acceptance packet.</p>
