<p>Anybody apply for the AXA Community Scholarship? I'm not sure what achievement I can write about for this one. Can I write about volunteering as a small group leader at my church, a one-day missions trip down to Chicago (handing out Subway sandwiches to the homeless), or working as a TA for StarTalk (government-funded Chinese program aimed to teach kids Chinese from grades 1-12)? If so, which one should I use? The deadline is February 1 I believe.</p>

<p>“Primary consideration will be given to the applicant’s non-academic outstanding achievement as described in the online application essays when selecting finalists. The achievement may be a long-term achievement, an activity or a project that occurred in their school, in the community or in the workplace.”</p>

<p>Found out yesterday that I am a finalist. Now I have to submit transcript and letter of verification for my outstanding achievement. Anyone else a finalist? Any idea how many are finalists?</p>

<p>I was a finalist too!! I have no idea how many finalist they pick and how many they pick out of those people but glad to have made it this far.</p>

5

<p>Finalist as well. No idea about the numbers.</p>

<p>If you look on their website for last year finalists I think this info is listed. I think there are so many per state based on the number of offices they have in that state.</p>

<p>They only listed the students who actually won. I was selected as a finalist, but I have to submit more documentation and a transcript to determine whether I am a recipient. </p>

@mich5225 I know this is from a long time ago but I applied for the 2015 AXA Achievement Scholarship and I am wondering if all those who applied will receive a letter regardless? (It’s a letter right, not email?) also, when they should be getting them? THANK YOU :slight_smile:
