Coolidge Scholarship 2021

I can see that happening. The language they used was also “by July 15th” rather than “on July 15th,” so I’m pretty sure it’ll come out early as well.

It is quite scary though, LOL. I don’t think I got anywhere near finalist status but I can hope for senator, I guess! Good luck!

holy cow. thats a 40% increase from last year. maybe decisions wont be coming out soon lol

Any updates?

Nope. I tried logging into the portal and it said “error.” I guess they’re working on decisions and will release the results sometime next week.

It sure seems to be taking a very long time for them to announce results. It’s a little painful.
Anyone else here anything?

I was named a Senator! I got the email around an hour ago.

Senator! Congrats to all - can’t wait to meet y’all

Oh, sure! I was in the top 1% of my class (school doesn’t rank), had a 1570 SAT/1520 PSAT, and 5’s on several APs including Calc BC. I had a few leadership positions and my ECs were centered around politics, writing, and piano. At the time of application, I had a couple of state awards but almost no national ones.

I spent a lot of time reading the provided speeches/autobiography and did outside research on Coolidge for my essays, which I think helped me out. Good luck next year!

Did everyone receive their acceptance at approximately the same time?

congrats everyone ! i was wondering if anyone had received a rejection yet? also, were your results available in the portal, or just via email?

do you guys think that they released all the acceptances at once, or do you think they’ll stagger it? i’ve not heard anything back, so i’m wondering if it’s because i was rejected or they potentially haven’t notified everyone yet?

Have you checked the promotions tab of gmail? I found my results there.

I haven’t received anything. Sigh.

Has anyone else heard anything? I haven’t received any updates or notifications from them.

I have not received anything yet.

Nothing here either it just says “application received“ - but I’m guessing that means I’m not getting it- also for anyone interested heres a link I found after applying about why the Coolidge Foundation is recently so wealthy Inside the Conservative Takeover of Vermont's Coolidge Foundation | Politics | Seven Days | Vermont's Independent Voice
