Discovery Weekend 2009

<p>Hey All,</p>

<p>I asked my counselor to be nominated a while back....I'm getting a little worried though since I haven't hear anything in a few months. Has anyone been contacted by their counselors/ Swarthmore about the subsequent steps?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot.</p>

<p>You have to be nominated? I was unaware of that fact. I just got a random mailing informing me of the program last year and then my mother made me apply (something that I am very happy about now.) Are you sure you need a nomination? Also, at least when I applied, the deadline was around late August (like the 22nd or something?) so I would def contact someone at Swarthmore ASAP so that you have time to write and review your essays before the deadline. Good luck! Discovery Weekend was a great experience. It was definitely the deciding factor for me applying ED1 last year.</p>

<p>Nomination is not necessary. Just apply online :)</p>
