<p>same question. i posted that question in the college admissions board and i didn't get a reply even thou about 100 or so read it. advice anyone?</p>
<p>Its a great accomplishment and something to be proud of, can't think it would hurt. How about asking in the parents forum, maybe someone there can give you some advice. Congratulations to all of you!</p>
<p>here's a link to my post for advice in the parent's forum. has good info:</p>
<p>Also, I was bored so I started googling in Coca Cola Scholars and I found an alumnus' webpage with his photos from the Coca Cola Scholars weekend in 2004. It has quite a few pictures. </p>

<p>wow...that is a lot! I better bring a TON of film....haha</p>
<p>Hey, when are you all sending in the forms? Also...how are you writing your intro paragraph...witty, funny...or straightfoward?</p>
<p>I still don't know. Mine is witty and original and definitely me, but I don't really know if I like it that much. I will see.</p>
<p>I haven't even started on those forms yet. I have too much to finish. lol.</p>
<p>LOL me too. The deadline seems so soon! Yeah....I wanted to try something witty...but then it usually comes out sounding lame ......maybe I'll just go traditional. (aka boring)</p>
<p>Hey, did anyone get a confirmation back that they received our e-mailed Intro Form and Teacher nomination?</p>
<p>not yet, but im sure if they didnt get it, they'd contact you.</p>
<p>Hey, did everyone get a letter of congratulations from your local bottling company? On mine it said something about "looking foward to meeting you....perhaps at your school's awards ceremony..." Does this mean they are going to show up at our school's awards ceremony??</p>
<p>I assume so. I haven't gotten anything yet.</p>
<p>perhaps to present the distinguished educator award? i received a nice letter from my local bottling company when i became a semifinalist.</p>
<p>they are sending me a tshirt to wear on the day of my plane travel...which means wednesday evening. lol. i thought there werent any activities planned then.</p>
<p>A T-shirt on Wednesday? interesting. </p>
<p>Yeah, after semifinalist I got a nice letter as well. I really like this scholarship program...they seem to really be dedicated and thoughtful in the entire process. I heard from a past finalist that the trip is amazing!</p>
<p>Ya unfortunately my local bottler hates me. I haven't gotten a damn thing .</p>
<p>aww they just called me today and they wont mail it until the week of the event, so dont worry. it may jsut be a regional thing, though.</p>
<p>do u know when they get back to u about the little conflict thing the dude was talking about in the email? like if u are trying to get back early?</p>
