I’m sorry, but I have seen first-hand the damage done when I compare myself to other successful applicants. I was waitlisted at my state school and deferred a couple other places… it truly is very random and I’ve gotten so upset when looking at others stats and EC’s. Know your self-worth and just keep pushing on! I wish the absolute best to everyone!

How did you figure it out. She’s checked all of her email accounts, no email. And tried logging in with her other (school, etc.) emails as username with no luck.
Thank you.
Where did you apply for such a scholar? I could not find anywhere indicated my D applied for it.
You just had to answer a question at commonapp. A yes or no question
When your D applied to Emory, there was a question on the Emory specific questions asking if you would like to be considered for scholarships. If you checked Yes, AND applied by the November 15th deadline (even if RD applicant), your D would be automatically considered.

Same! Except I’m a finalist at Oxford. I definitely prefer Emory but can’t complain.

I think we screwed. We thought that question is about “need financial” so we chose “no”. And we accidentally chose “yes” to the LBGT question while she is not one of LGBT. 
Same question here! Will the finalists who do not make the scholars get any scholarship money at all?
yes!! I think so!! maybe call to confirm though
