<p>Anybody else get the email to apply for the Drake Scholarship? I'm a mechanical engineering applicant.</p>
<p>I know it says that there's no correlation but we always ask; any bearing on admittance for receiving this email?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Hahahaha. We’re admitted :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Anyways, I got that email as well. Here’s some discussion regarding it: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/india/1270009-indian-thread-20-a-48.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/india/1270009-indian-thread-20-a-48.html</a> Post #696 through post #707.</p>
<p>Honestly, I don’t think it has any correlation. They sent me an email even though I am an international student and won’t be able to complete the fundamental requirement of becoming a US citizen or acquiring permanent residency by 15th August ;)</p>
<p>No one else got the invitation?</p>
<p>i got one, but i was already planning on applying to it. it’s open to all mechE prospies! you should go for it. i think only six people get it though. good luck!</p>
<p>We would have no way of knowing that you couldn’t become a citizen by that time.</p>
<p>Oh wow its shareeeenaaaa!!!</p>
<p>I don’t know about Shareena, but I was admitted :)</p>
