<p>I called the Gates Millenium Scholarship office and they told me that I have 0 out of 5 documents that are not turn in. Can someone tell me what they mean?</p>
<p>@geiger42: What is the number? Can you please tell me?! I’m beginning to lose hope because I am Asian and haven’ received anything. Oh well…</p>
<p>Anyone from the east cost?!! i’m freaking out now. i’m from new york.</p>
<p>today is a very good day! finalist notification today and i was also accepted into one of my favorite colleges!
from the uncf</p>
<p>I received an email first which told me to look for the letter in the mail. My guidance counselor also received an email. When i got home from school, I found the letter. Then I received a phone call from APIASF to ask if I had received my letter and congratulating me. WOoHOO!!!</p>
<p>If you are a finalist, you have 5 additional forms that need to be submitted by April 9. Maybe that is what they mean.</p>
<p>I am from NJ.</p>
<p>CONGRATS everyone! @zowhat37, where are you from?</p>
<p>Have any hispanics from southern california gotten a notification yet?</p>
<p>@cupcake608 </p>
<p>The number is 1-877-690-4677</p>
<p>@geiger what branch would you be a part of?</p>
<p>I am apart of the UNCF</p>
<p>ok thanks well it might mean you are a finalist cause when i called it just said a letter has been mailed lol part of hsf though so idk if that has anything to do with it.</p>
<p>They just send me an email saying I am a finalist. But keep your head up and never ever lose hope.</p>
<p>thanks @geiger42. ugh i feel like there’s no hope 
omg i worked so hard on that app! once again, CONGRATS TO EVERYONE!!!</p>
<p>ok well congrats!!=D and thanks!</p>
<p>@skitskat004
I am hispanics from southern california and I got an email as well saying I made it! :)</p>
<p>@cupcake608 do not give up hope call and see what they say</p>
<p>So i did the thing you guys said…and they said “a letter has been sent to you…” so that means I’m a non-finalist right?</p>
<p>Finalist! Received a letter in the mail today + an email. The letter was from UNCF. This is so exciting! Congrats to everyone, and to those still waiting, don’t lose hope!</p>
