<p>Well,
Since it says March 5th, i anticipate the emails on March 5th. It’s only March 4th.
@mom ~ It’s not too late. One more day. ^.^</p>
<p>I applied. I hope I make it. I didn’t realize they were coming out so soon.</p>
<p>Also have not received an e-mail. Hope we get ours tomorrow, I was really hoping for this one and I’m starting to get anxious :S</p>
<p>It seems like they probably haven’t sent anything out yet, since no one on this threat has gotten it, so there’s still hope! :D</p>
<p>Nothing for me either from this scholarship, but I did get a competitive scholarship for Theatre arts department today at my #1 school, so, yay! Snail mail is such a big gamble lately - good news, bad news? I have never respected my mailman so much.</p>
<p>BTW my son hasnt recieved an email yet either.
Yea I think maybe I was wrong about the “its too late”. Already all of the people on here have said they havent gotten anything so the probability of all of us NOT getting it is extremely low. Maybe they will send it out tommorow. </p>
<p>Because we are waiting anyways, how many hours of volunteering and/or working have you guys done?</p>
<p>550 service hours grades 9-12
employed since age 15, 40 hours/week during summer 2012</p>
<p>I think I have like 600.</p>
<p>Does anyone know how EXACTLY they choose provisional candidates? By volunteer hours/work or like everything including grades? Also, what if my son becomes a provisional candidate. Is there like a elimination after that or has he basically gotten the award providing he turns all his stuff in and can prove his hours and work. Does anyone know of this?</p>
<p>^^ I’d like to know too.</p>
<p>Wow, I really thought that I had a good chance for this scholarship until I saw the volunteer hours a couple of CCers who applied posted. Oh well.</p>
<p>Anyone know if we’ll get an email if we are not selected? I’ll be checking my email way too much tomorrow.</p>
<p>Amandaphoria, those who are not selected as provisional recipients will not be notified.</p>
<p>Getting really anxious about this. So once midnight hits, its no longer by March 5th and we could assume we didn’t get it? 
ahh</p>
<p>Anything yet? Nothing for me.</p>
<p>Nothing </p>
<p>10 char</p>
<p>nothing on our end either</p>
<p>Hate to be a downer but I think if we haven’t received an email by now this opportunity has passed. </p>
<p>In reviewing 5 year history on these boards for posts re: the Best Buy Scholarship - two things seem to be consistent
- Best Buy has always notified provisional recipients prior to the published date - never on the actual date.
- provisional recipients have typically posted on these boards a few days AFTER receiving their emails…we will probably see them post here later this week.</p>
<p>Best of luck on the rest of the scholarships you are pursuing!</p>
<p>Aw man, I was hoping for this one. This is the first one I would have heard back from and it’s discouraging that I likely didn’t get it.</p>
<p>Don’t lose faith yet. Corporate Best Buy has been going through organization changes and got dumped on with snow last night. Lots of reasons could delay notification.</p>
