<p>@bluelovexD - I have heard in many forums and blogs that Richmond scholar semifinalists get accepted to UR if something doesn’t deteriorate drastically, but since I am a re-applicant and UR already has my final grades so can I expect a good news come March?</p>
<p>@irishbrigade: I was a semifinalist last year, and in an email to us they said 470 semifinalists were selected…
Which admission officer is this?</p>
<p>I agree with bluelovexD, when I had emailed UR in November regarding the scholars program, they told me less than 500 were selected last year and the same will be followed this year. Even the Richmond scholars blog states that around 500 are selected, 700 are too many!</p>
