Best Buy Scholarship - anyone hear?

<p>They've posted that notification will be via email by March 8. Has anyone received an email or any kind of notification?</p>

<p>I was wondering the same thing. I haven’t received anything yet, but I’m not expecting anything since it’s obvious that I only joined that at15 account for the scholarship entry…</p>

<p>I havent gotten anything yet either. im worried because i changed my email from the time i submitted my app</p>

<p>Me neither. Just waiting</p>

<p>Waiting…
Do non-winners get notified too?</p>

<p>According to them if you are not a finalist you will not be notified</p>

<p>Ugh, I hate it when they do that. Just a computerized “Sorry, you have not been selected” would be nice so students could stop freaking out.</p>

<p>Yeah I agree</p>

<p>Still nothing?</p>

<p>I thought it was stated that finalists would hear mid-March. Are we really supposed to find out today? I’m sort of nervous.</p>

<p>I thought it was just March, but I went back and checked and when I submitted the application the confirmation e-mail says the following: </p>

<p>“Provisional recipients will be notified of their status via email by March 8. Check your email regularly! Provisional recipients will be required to submit additional information. Not all applicants to the program will be selected as provisional recipients.”</p>

<p>So it does appear that today’s the day, and it is only the afternoon, so there’s still time. However, these things don’t always go according to schedule, so we might not find out today. Sometimes they’re early, sometimes they’re late. Secondly, this says provisional recipients, so can we assume that if we get an e-mail we’re likely to be recipients if we submit accurate materials on time? Also, since only provisional recipients are e-mailed, it could be that we just didn’t get it. A good possibility, except that it’d be shocking if nobody on CC got it even though they’re should be at least 1,000 (number of awards) provisional recipients.</p>

<p>Nothing yet…I always get my hopes up too high for these things.</p>

<p>Still nothing?</p>

<p>has anyone heard yet?</p>

<p>Nope I wish though</p>

<p>Nope, I’m guessing they’re just not doing it today…</p>

<p>Still nothing :(</p>

<p>yeah, it does not look like it will happen today</p>

<p>Ya, the website is saying mid march now. Everyone last year got it on the 18th so we’ll just have to wait a little longer I guess…</p>

<p>Oh well, it’s not like it affected my productivity or anything today</p>
