<p>Yay! I’m a 2014 Gates Millennium Scholar!!!</p>
<p>From Virginia! Thank my Lord and Savior!</p>
<p>@delmartin7 I just saw your post! Congratulations! 2 Virginians so far! Haha, my week in Portsmouth just got so much better! Oh! God is so awesome! Thank OUR Lord and Savior! 
</p>
<p>How is everyone finding out? Via email or snail mail?</p>
<p>@NewHavenCTmom Via snail mail. An email will go out on the 21st as well.</p>
<p>Okay, I just went back a few pages and read it! Thanks just the same. I was being lazy…is anyone here a Jackie Robinson semifinalist? My DD is…she found out today. Her interview is May 17th.</p>
<p>Does anyone know all the goodies that come along with being a Gates scholar. I’ve heard that past winners used to get laptop and printers etc…has anyone received any updated 2014 info?</p>
<p>@NewHavenCTmom I’m not sure. I didn’t apply for the Jackie Robinson one, and I’m not sure if anyone else has. I’m not even home, so I can’t say what the perks are. My cousin read me my mail since I’m on Spring Break. Sorry I can’t be of more help. :-(</p>
<p>I’m a Gates winner!!! Received packet in the mail today. Haven’t gone through the whole packet, but I am so excited and relieved. Good Luck to everyone :-* </p>
<p>@dunnis That’s awesome!! I’m excited for you!! What city and state are you from? What’s your ethnicity?</p>
<p>@NewHavenCTmom Send my congratulations to your daughter!!! :D</p>
<p>@rhythmandbible ok thank you so much!</p>
<p>Aww thanks I will! @rhythmandbible is anyone else as tired as she is of all the scholarship apps?</p>
<p>@NewHavenCTmom I know I’m exhausted. As soon as I had enough scholarships to cover my cost of attendance, I nearly passed out.</p>
<p>@GA2012MOM Does the Gates Scholarship cover deposits, like those for rooms?</p>
<p>@ScubaMom9026 Does the Gates Scholarship cover deposits, like those for rooms?</p>
<p>@rhythmandbible, when I notified my son’s school that he was a scholar, they reduced the deposits required by 50%. Talk to your school’s admission counselor in regards to this area.</p>
