Clark Scholars Program!!

<p>I think there'll also probably be a lot more applicants than last year (86) since this was put on CC so early. But...I don't know...if I get accepted to something I want to feel like it's an actual accomplishment than a cheat or a copout. Oh well--decisions started around the 19th last year so let's just see how things go ^_^</p>

<p>i'm running out of patience...
come on, let us know!</p>

<p>do they contact thorugh e-mail or regualar postal mail?</p>

<p>They call you!</p>

<p>I know that calls have been received. My friend got in but she declined.</p>

<p>^ Congrats!! At least we now know they're starting the calls :P Will you be attending or are going somewhere else? (RSI, I see)</p>

<p>I think they definitely rank the acceptance list...</p>

<p>yes...I guess.</p>

<p>well, i hope you guys get in!! cuz im going to hshsp :] i was deciding b/t that and ssp. they both have awesome college acceptances...but i wanna do research :)</p>

<p>^ Me too, especially since I find research really exciting and I'm thinking on possibly entering Intel & Siemens next year. Those are some of the reasons why I really want to get into Clark rather than default to my backup!</p>

<p>I hope they leave messages on answering machines. Anyone know? I had to stay after school today and I'm going to be unable to pick up anything basically until Tuesday >_></p>

<p>hehe....I've a worse problem....abt phone....i need to contact them and give them my new cell phone number......hehe.</p>

<p>lol (10 char)</p>

<p>do they contact cell or home? Actually my home phn like 2 days ago was not working. Also my cell randomly stops working and it new too. I hope they can reach me.</p>

<p>Wow, if acceptances are coming out, then I'd better stop lurking on this thread. I'd rather find out about my rejection when they contact me. :P</p>

<p>I have a gut feeling they are gonna contact tommorow. THey will prolly have to leave a message since i live in the pacific time zone and i don't get back home until 5 pacific.</p>

<p>I'm not sure if they leave messages. I mean, they'd want to know immediately if you'll be declining, right?</p>

<p>Pretty confident, eh? ;P Oh well. I think if I don't get a call by next week, I'm just going to email them and hear my rejection than waiting for the letter.</p>

<p>Wow, that might be a problem... No one in my family ever answers the phone.</p>

<p>Do you think they call us if we've been rejected? Or just leave us to assume?</p>

<p>They probably inform you eventually, haha. It's unprofessional not to. Probably by mail rather than mass-emailing like Cornell, but you never know.</p>

<p>Wait don't they call everyone? Or do they only call those who got accepted. Actaully i am not confident at all since this program is like RSI where i already got rejected from.</p>

<p>they only call ppl who get in. and dont worry about getting rejected from rsi. i got rejected... which was a huge blow.. i actually forced myself to forget about clarks cuz i didnt want to be dissapointed again. surprisingly i got accepted.. so hey you never noe what will happen. (same goes w/ college admissions.. rejection/acceptance one place tells u very little about what will happen somewhere else if u are a competitive applicant)</p>

<p>so i duno if this will be any comfort to u rsi "rejects"..bu i think everyone who ended up going to clarks got rejected from rsi.. which i guess is understandable because i think most ppl who get into both would pick rsi over clark. but looking back.. im so glad i went to clarks instead of rsi</p>

<p>^ You mean...everybody accepted by Clark did <em>apply</em> to RSI? Wow~</p>

<p>BTW, where are you going this fall? :) Or taking a leap year?</p>
