<p>The best advice I can offer is - consider the entire weekend to be an interview.</p>
<p>^ Yeah, I figured that. Every move you make in front of anybody could be considered an evaluation.</p>
<p>ST2, I know that you're discussing the Danforth scholarship specifically (which my high school, unfortunately, was unaware of), but could you give any insight as to the interview/overall evaluation process for the Honorary Scholars Program and/or the University Scholars Program?</p>
<p>So I've gathered that we will be notifed of our scholarship status (for all scholarships?) sometime next week? Ah, exciting!</p>
<p>Danforth Finalists are being called at this very moment!!</p>
<p>Sharon Stahl just notified me and there are 39 finalists this year :-) AHHHHH im so excited</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone else and cant wait to see you in late March!</p>
<p>^ I already posted this on the general notifications thread, but EFF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( I wanted it so bad, because I can't go to WashU without it (since they're non-need blind and don't even met full need).</p>
<p><em>sigh</em> one school down, 8 to go lol</p>
<p>Is the Danforth scholarship different than the other scholarships (e.g., engineering ones, Scholars program, Annika, etc.)?</p>
<p>Well im not sure if Sharon stahl is done calling everybody yet because of the fact that there are 39-40 finalists (are you only hoping for the danforth hookem?)</p>
<p>Dpattz- Danforth is different than all the other scholarships (Lien, Moog, A.Rod., Fitz., etc.)</p>
<p>I got a phone call about an hour ago as well!!!!!!!!! OMG....this is turning out to be the best weekend ever!</p>
<p>newprov- how long ago did you get called?</p>
<p>^ Yeah, newprov.</p>
<p>ok i have to stop posting on both of the threads haha... about 5:00 EST</p>
<p>any chance that you have a last name towards the beginning of the alphabet? I'm just grasping at straws here.</p>
<p>haha I was thinking along the same lines as you... I'm an H</p>
<p>Ha. No. "S." <em>dies</em> :(</p>
<p>Would you guys mind posting some basic stats?</p>
<p>I'm a W so maybe a i have a slim hope...oh well. we shall see. One last pestering question. How long did the phone call last? I'm trying to figure out the math.</p>
<p>6 min for me, im moog tho.</p>
<p>thanks! averaging five minutes for 39 people it would take over three hours, and ST2 just posted that it usually takes more than one day to contact everyone. So i shall not yet despair! plus i applied to 3 scholarships total. obsessing over for the moment.</p>
<p>haha I only did the Danforth because I was too close to the deadline and didn't have time to write good essays or get recs for the Mylonas and the writing one (I forget what it was called)</p>
<p>I am so f-ing confused right now! haha :) congrats to all who have been called though!</p>
