Starting this thread for all applicants to the Cameron Impact Scholarship for 2020. Please feel free to ask comments, share stats, anything under the umbrella of the scholarship.
Is anyone applying for the early decision round?
havent done much research but is the early decision round a lot better than regular?
Didn’t know this existed until CC made me aware of it but thinking of applying now. It says “applications are received on a rolling basis.” Does this mean that applicants are notified of their status on a rolling basis too?
Hi! I applied early decision, did anyone else?
@nomorecoll96 The advantage to applying early is this. They have 80-100 interview spots they’re giving away. When you apply early you get first come first serve for those and the spots that are left over after the early decision people have been given their decisions at the end of June will determine how many spots are available for the normal decision round, which is decidedly less for the majority of applicants that apply during the regular round.
@Racingfan53 Technically the division of applicant notifications is separated between early and regular rounds. All early decision applicants will be notified by the end of June. But say you applied in February you’d receive a notification earlier than someone who applied in May.
@bayougal I applied early too! The waiting game is gonna be harsh tho bro
I applied early a few days before the deadline. A little nervous since it’s mid-June now and only a week or so left until they let us know.
same I applied early and cant help refreshing my email every day
so freaking nervous as well
The anxiety is so real rn…
I think they might just release all decisions on the last day of June.
Has anyone heard anything back yet?
no not yet
Nope. Releasing them all on the last day sounds like something they might do but reeeeaallly doesn’t help my nerves.
i’m so nervous i also applied early but then i see the bios of all the former scholars and i’m nowhere near as accomplished as they are
Got an email this morning that sounded a lot like a college rejection letter lol. Good luck to those that get interviews though!
yikes i just received my rejection letter too ;( best of luck to those who were selected!
(does anyone know if we can reapply for regular?)
i didnt get anything yet probs a rejection then.
