Cameron Impact Scholarship 2020

Has anyone heard back yet? Idk when we’re supposed to hear back but I’m getting antsy!!

Not yet, they will probably start giving calls and sending emails either later this week or next week. If anyone has heard back, let us know! Thanks!

Does anyone know how many students applied this year?

My daughter got a call Monday that she’s a finalist. Interviews will be the last half of October through November.

May I ask what state you are from? Was wondering if they will call all the finalists at once or by state. Thank you

Looks like if you did not get a call u are out of the running unfortunately…

That includes me

Have you heard of anyone else that received a call? In past years, they gave calls to finalists around October 16-18th, so it is a bit weird they would have done calls earlier this year.

Yeah its a bit weird but probably cuz they have become more efficient over time. With a 2-day gap im not expecting any more calls to be going out

Well also last year they called people on the 16th and on the 27th so it’s just because they send out decisions as they come to them…I’m not worried

@incomptnthswf Would you mind sharing when your daughter applied? I applied a day before the deadline (haven’t heard anything) and I’m just curious. Thanks!

@farmerboy20 how do you know they called on the 27th?

Also I just thought about something: if they had already called all of their finalists it doesn’t make sense to wait to tell others that they were rejected. They have an email message all written up already so why wait 2 weeks to send it? The only logical thing is that they’re still going through applications.

@AvengersEndgame on this forum from last year, someone from the organization posted that everyone had been called as of the 27th but people were saying that they were called on the 16th too

I’m almost positive they accept finalists on a rolling basis. I wouldn’t be too panicked if you haven’t heard back yet.

I dunno. It seems like the vast majority if not everyone got their call on the same day. Your theories make sense, but i think the 27th thing was just to tell everyone that it was over. Everyone was already called up on that 16th date. It was just like that every year before. I hate being a debby-downer but i just hate keeping my hopes up for something already seemingly decided.

Who else did you hear from that got a call on the 16th?

Sorry, I meant anytime in the past two days. I’ve only heard of one.

Just some peopel on previous chats for this scholarship (not anyone personally)

I don’t think they’re done calling finalists - I believe they notify people on a rolling basis.
