@helloneumn There’s a button that directs you to the National Semi Finalist Application which he has chosen not to pursue because he feels there’s no way he would get it with our income.
They pay all expenses for the trip and you get a minimum of $4,000 per year through the maximum.
Nothing to lose…
Has anyone heard anything from Pennsylvania?
My daughter is still waiting in PA. Hoping for something good but being realistic as well. Good luck!
Nothing from PA either, so keeping hope alive.
Nothing in CT yet either.
Well they said by 6:00 Central Time. Maybe a little later. This doesn’t make sense.
Anyone from wa?
Anyone hear from Michigan???
Here in Texas I’ve still heard nothing. I don’t know if the emails are by state or just random.
Didn’t want to give up but thinking if she advanced, it would have been sent by now.
I called and they said there is no specific order. Not state and not alphabetically. Just random batches.
Did they say when the last of the emails would be sent?
@J123D123 did they say when the last emails were going out?
Murphy’s Law
I suppose if anything can go wrong it will go wrong.
The Elks phone rep suggested the Scholarship Data Service had some sort of problem on Friday leading to Monday as the day where everyone remaining would be notified.
Well clearly the Data Service missed its mark as there were a number of us who haven’t heard a peep.
I can only imagine that there are more yet to come tomorrow.
Sleep Well
I just got an email from someone at the Elks Foundation saying all notifications were sent out around 5pm yesterday. She said to check spam/junk mail folders. My daughter’s was not there. Chatting with the ISTS people now…
"Okay, it looks like she wasn’t sent a notification. We are sending her one now regarding her status, as they should have been sent last night.
I’m showing that, unfortunately, she was not selected to move on to the National level."
@helloneumn I guess I should call them too? What number do I call?
I tried calling and got a computer runaround. I ended up going to the ISTS website and chatting with someone online
My daughter didn’t receive an email either. Does everyone who advanced have another application uploaded on the ISTS website? She does not, so I’m assuming she didn’t move on, but maybe I should call…
