Most schools don’t officially count hours. This is not a problem. You should have some good idea of how many community service hours you have performed; you list that.
Does Key Club fall under a community service activity, or a school activity?
@CourtneyThurston Question: the actual application part has section for academics. For example, under Math - it says Math- 9, Math - 10, Math - 11 and Math - 12. My daughter filled it out choosing the honors for all grades except AP for 12th and showing her corresponding grade. We then went to preview it (and print) and it showed Algebra1, Geo, Algebra 2, pre-calc, etc. That was “assigned” to each year. In other words, under 9th grade it said Algebra 1, even though she never entered in speficially which class she took because it is not on a drop down menu on the actual application. The preview was completely incorrect on Math, Science and Social Sciences…(in science it had her taking AP chem this year and said AP Physics last year (which is completely opposite of what she did). The weird part is that if you go to the SAMPLE as part of the instructions it shows the different choices for Math (ALgebra, Geo, pre-calc., etc) but on the actual application there is NO place you choose your classes. Again it just says math - 9, Math - 10 or in the case of science…Science - 9th, Science -10th. What do we do? This is an error and not sure who to contact. Otherwise her app, atleast on the academics, prints out nothing like what was input. HELP!
I know I’m speaking in advance, but this question covers a vast amount of scholarships. Who should you get to do the recommendations?
@hcmom65 Sorry for the slow response; didn’t see this for some reason. So the application has changed a lot since I applied in late 2014 – I think they’re using an entirely different application form now. I’d contact their helpline (look on the website FAQs or their help email for questions).
@dylan37 Preferably someone who holds public office (at any level) or is the executive director or equivalent at a non-profit. If you can’t get either of those, go with a principal. If you can’t get any of those… go with teachers. But make sure their recs are fantastic.
Hey guys, everytime I enter in a description and save it in the activities section, a part of it is getting cut off everytime I press save. Is this happening to anyone else?
Anyone else having that issue?
I didn’t notice anything @therealdeal23
@math3matical When you go to the print form section, is everything normal?
It seems there is a cutoff for the title lengths. I hadn’t noticed it until I went to the print preview. @therealdeal23
@math3matical Even the classes section is messed up.
@CourtneyThurston When do we find out about semi-finalist selections?
The website says mid-November sometime, but the application date was extended until November 15th I believe? @therealdeal23
Does anyone know in which section of the application science internship activities would go? For example, I took part in a NASA summer internship and a college summer internship. Where would I put these on the application?
I submitted!
Does anyone know when the deadline is? Is it like tonight at 11:59 pm or tomorrow at 11:59 pm? I can’t find anything on the website.
Is the Coca Cola scholars login not working for anyone else??? I tried to put in my password but it says it’s not working, and when I try to reset my password I get an error message that seems to be a website issue. Is anyone else having the same problem?! I’m really worried.
^ Same for me, unfortunately. I just tried making a new login, and someone else’s information showed up! D:
I’ve been having the same issue!
