cornell scholarship competition

<p>i just got my acceptance package. i got the 15,000 scholarship, and i'm a finalist for the full room and board cornell scholarship. anyone else going march 5-6 to the "competition" weekend? it's a nice school, but its only 15-20 min away from my house so that's a big turn off for me. i also don't like the small size, but i could probably get used to it. i am thinking about double majoring in business and communications, how is rollins program for those?</p>

<p>Did you apply RD? Also, did the package come in today?</p>

<p>What am I missing? You're in Orlando and Cornell is by your house?</p>

<p>Rollins' full scholarship is called the Cornell scholarship. :)</p>

<p>It's just amazing .. the things I don't know. I'm in Fort Walton Beach by the way.</p>

<p>yes, i applied RD in oct or nov through the personal application that was sent to me in august. the package came yesterday, fed-exed in a package that said saturday delivery.</p>

<p>cornell isn't the school, it's the name of the scholarship at rollins. :-)</p>

<p>I got the same package...I can't wait. :)</p>

<p>thepointol - are you going? i'm hoping it will be fun and laid back, even though it is a competition. is rollins one of your top choices?</p>

<p>It would be wrong to give up an excuse to get out of the cold state of Ohio, even if Rollins wasn't one of my top choices. ;) (But it definitely is one of my top choices) The proposed schedule makes it seem like only 3 or 4 hours of the entire weekend compose the "competition" part, so it should be a good time.</p>

<p>yeah thats what i'm thinking. it will be cool to meet someone from CC. :-) what other schools did you apply to?</p>

<p>Yale (deferred), West Point (accepted), Trinity/San Antonio (accepted), and a whole slew of small LACs in Ohio. The Yale app was just for fun, but I will admit it was nice not to be part of the 60% rejected EA. Rollins is probably my top choice right now, and I will most definitely matriculate if I do well in the competition. :) Looking forward to meeting another CCer too.</p>

<p>Somebody tell me about Rollins. My son (junior) got a letter mentioning the Cornell Scholarship. He doesn't know what he wants to major in but is considering math.</p>

<p>I got accepted as well with an $11,000 scholorship and free laptop</p>

<p>Hey watsup, Im going the cornell competition tomorrow too, from ATL. C ya there.</p>

<p>A week or so until we get results... good luck everyone!</p>
