<p>So I’m guessing Hispanics outside of Cali will find out tomorrow? Or soon? Well good luck!</p>

<p>I hope Hispanics start finding out tomorrow i am so impatient!!</p>

<p>I have no idea how I got it but I’m glad I did! Now my parents won’t have to worry about loans and all that other financing</p>

<p>I hope I get it today</p>

<p>Gates Scholar from Wichita Kansas!</p>

<p>Big congratulations everyone - we are really so very happy for you! We keep hoping over here.</p>

<p>Hey- first post here</p>

<p>I too have been selected as a Gates Millennium Scholar
I am an Asian from Baltimore, Maryland and will be attending Johns Hopkins University in the fall! Congrats to all others too! and all the best to those who are all still waiting!</p>

<p>Best wishes to you Eecardell. I know it’s coming just hang in there! :)</p>

<p>^^^^Thanks, we appreciate the words of encouragement!</p>

<p>Please, for the love of God, may the Hispanics from the Southeast or outside of California find out today. </p>

<p>I just want to find out–I’ll be happy if I get it or not—I just need the whole college app/scholarship app process to be over. </p>

<p>BEST OF LUCK TO ALL OF YOU! and CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL WHO HAVE RECEIVED THE SCHOLARSHIP!</p>

<p>My daughter got it today. Hispanic from South Carolina.
Thank you God, and Mr. and Mrs. Gates. Please, do not lose hope.</p>

<p>Everyone whose been notified of being a gates scholar, did you receive your package through fed-ex/ups or standard mail? I’m on spring break now and waiting around is doing me no good. I’m too anxious and nervous. The wait is killing me</p>

<p>I’m still waiting too! I’m in my last class and I’m dying to just get home and check the mail! Congratulations to the new scholars though! <3</p>

<p>uhh the letter came in the regular mail and it was a big envelope - the size of a college acceptance letter, since there is a folder-like thing inside with a letter, certificate and more information - postmarked on april 15th.</p>

<p>Anyone know what our GMS ID is? I don’t think it’s the same as our registration number when we were applying, but I don’t see anything about an updated number anywhere else. When I called the main Gates line on the website and selected the option for current scholars, it said that I wasn’t in the system, so it beats me.</p>

<p>@ mhamza… Thank you for the info. If it’s postmarked april 15th I should hopefully receive something by tomorrow. I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t take more than 5 days to have mail sent from CA to VA…</p>

<p>Nothing in the mail again…I’m starting to think I didnt get it</p>

<p>aa from mo still waiting… getting discouraged. still have faith though</p>

<p>Asian from GA–yeah, the mail doesn’t take that long. Haha. I’m not even going to wait anymore. Haha.
Oh well! Better luck on other things! :)</p>

<p>well i always get things really late so im not too bummed</p>
