<p>Congrats everyone!!!
I’m still waiting AA from Louisiana</p>
<p>Hispanics from Cali, do you guys live in northern or southern california. I live in the central valley and am really afraid/nervous to go home. I want to know but at the same time I am scared to be disappointed.</p>
<p>No, there is no place to confirm whether you are a scholar or not yet. The guys at AIGCS keep telling me to be patient - HA! Like there is any other choice at this point :)</p>
<p>Keeping the good vibe as long as possible.</p>
<p>Anyone from PA, NJ, DE find out?</p>
<p>im from NJ and nothing for me yet</p>

<p>God is a miracle worker. I did not have as near te amazing stats as most scholars. It just goes to show God had this in his plan for me. Thank you GOD. Because without him this would not be possible. I hope all you are blessed to share this experience when you get your BIG package in the mail.
My stats:
3.96 uw

Vice presided speech and debate, officer in SGA, selected by my principal to participate in Many community organizations, accepted into research internships at a hospital and LSU med school, about 80 community service hours</p>

<p>Holy *****! I’m a Gates Scholar. ='DDDDDDD After crying for a good ten minutes after seeing my package from returning from work, I got it! =] Asian from Miami, FL. Stats: unweighted 3.78/weighted: 6.347. Ranking 6/50 and in a dual-enrollment high school. Lots of academic success and good (not great) amount of community service. About 210 hours total. Good teacher recommendation. Probably heading to Boston U to major in neuroscience/double minor in BME + Muslim studies. UF was my top choice, but not anymore (no offense Gators, I still love UF). If anyone is heading to BU, message me since I know no one there. XD</p>
<p>ZOMG! MY FATHER JUST CALLED ME IN TEARS, I’M A GATES SCHOLAR. I guess the praying paid off (not to mention 4 years of hard work). BEST OF LUCK to everyone still waiting for news. For those of you who already heard good news, see you at the GMS event in September. I can’t wait! Oh btw, I’m an African American female from San Diego, CA going to Johns Hopkins University next fall!</p>
