Forty acres scholarship application deadline extended?

I am trying to confirm if forty acres scholarship deadline is extended from November 1st to November 11th, did anyone else hear this? I was told this when I called TexasEx scholarship department. Is there an official website or communication on this?

Thanks

This is from the TexasExes twitter page:

@TexasExes
Deadline to apply for the Forty Acres Scholars Program has been extended to Nov. 11, 2018 at 11:59 P.M. CST. To ensure consideration, potential first-year students must have a completed @UTAustin admission application by the priority deadline (Nov 1)”

thank you @bookmom7 I also noticed the same.

Do you know when they notify for interviews

It’s typically late January from what I’ve seen, last year was the 31st

Do they send an email? Or check the portal?

Has anyone been notified finalist?
