Banneker/Key already sent?

<p>Someone I know says he got emailed about it already. Anyone else?</p>

<p>Last year they did not email invitations. They were small gold embossed folders with a lot of information inside for you to keep.</p>

<p>Call admissions. They will tell you if this is accurate and if the origninal invitations have been sent.</p>

<p>Yes, I got an email.</p>

<p>"Congratulations!</p>

<p>You have been selected as a semifinalist for the University of Maryland Banneker/Key Scholarship, our most prestigious merit scholarship for academically talented Honors College students.</p>

<p>I am writing to invite you to a personal interview with members of the Banneker/Key Selection Committee on Friday, March 5. In addition to your interview, you and your parents are invited to attend a variety of special events taking place throughout the day. All students attending this event will be awarded either full or partial Banneker/Key Scholarships.</p>

<p>I am sending you this good news via email because your formal invitation has been delayed due to a prolonged period of severe weather in our area."</p>

<p>^Do you guys think if I haven’t received an email yet I don’t have a shot at the interview?</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m really worried too. I probably will have to go to CC if I don’t get this.</p>

<p>I’m not too sure. But we have to RSVP for the event by this coming Monday, so if they haven’t finished sending them they better hurry up.</p>

<p>^ What time did you get the email if you don’t mind me asking?</p>

<p>4:48pm in Maryland.</p>

<p>Yeah, that’s what my friend said too. Well, no more then.</p>

<p>ya that’s probably it but I have a very tiny bit of hope that they only sent it to Maryland residents today. lol I’m from out of state</p>

<p>There is more than one interview day for Banneker Key. Maybe the emails are just for the first one. </p>

<p>Mamooie, did your friend also get invited to the one on March 5th?</p>

<p>Yeah, I think OOS kids will probably be receving invites in the mail sometime soon.</p>

<p>My DD also received her email today at 4:48pm. Her interview date is March 2, 2005.</p>

<p>^2005? lol. Are you out of state?</p>

<p>na some of my friends got a march 2 2010 date as well and they are instate</p>

<p>^^^Sorry. I mean March 2, 2010.</p>

<p>So I don’t think any out of staters received the invite yet. Hopefully. lol</p>
