not sure if this discussion was started already but anyone applying? less than 2 weeks left and I still haven’t started my app :))
Kind of weird that this year’s thread is so silent. Anyone also applying?
I’m applying too! And yeah it seems like a lot of summer threads have been silent. The RSI thread was super quiet this year and the Jackson Laboratories SSP for 2017 was nonexistent. Weird…
Also, does anyone know the acceptance rate to the program?
yeah I was wondering the same thing! not sure exactly but they only accept 12 scholars out of hundreds of applicants so 
Currently struggling with the app - Does anyone know how to send official test scores to a specified address? My school doesn’t do it and collegeboard only sends to colleges…
Are we supposed to send transcripts and test scores? It doesnt say anywhere on the app…
Wait duh - sorry forgot to read the first sentence XD
@Lumitailz
I think you can print out the unofficial reports, have your counselor sign them, and then mail them to Clark.
Rip too late. I just called collegeboard and had them send my scores over, but they won’t get there anytime soon. My transcript definitely won’t get there by today either- do you think I’ll get disqualified due to this?
300 words is so tough omg 
do you think they’re looking for something really straightforward or a more descriptive and creative response? for example I began my essay with an anecdote of a really unique experience I had, but that itself takes up like 100 words LOL
@andromeda8 Agreed, the word limits were super hard to cut down to…
Also, does anyone know what time the apps were due? I submitted at 11 PM PST, which is the time zone I live in, but that means it was already 1 AM in Texas. Hoping that doesn’t disqualify me because I couldn’t find any mention of an exact time on their website?
anyone get a confirmation email yet? I’m kinda worried my transcripts and test scores didn’t make it cause my tracking number from ups says information is unavailable
I didn’t get one either… I’m worried too.
I haven’t gotten one either. Is it okay to submit tests scores and transcripts by email? I just attached it as a pdf file on the email I sent.
I just got an email back saying thank you from Irene Cox.
@Anonymous1418 What was the context of your email? Was it a mass-response type confirmation or more specific? I’m debating whether or not to wait and see if I get a confirmation email or email the program myself, even if it seems awkward to do so many days after the deadline…
@insertcleverpun It literally just said “thank you” and nothing else
oh no I didn’t get one yikes I’m really nervous now
I didn’t get one either! I e-mailed them on the 15th, but I never got a response back :-<
I wouldn’t worry too much about it. They’re probably going through all of the emails that they got to check if the app is complete and if the 3 recommenders submitted their letter.
