<p>I know. I’m really excited. I applied to Florida State University, Florida Gulf Coast University, and Edison State College. I am kinda leaning towards apply to one out of state university. Georgia State University to be exact. What about you?</p>
<p>I have not received any conformation letter beside my nominator and recommender.</p>
<p>Is it early,mid, or late march when you know if you are a finalist.</p>
<p>Can’t log on this morning!!!</p>
<p>I applied to like 12 schools because I couldn’t narrow it down. I’m in Florida too!!!
I applied to:</p>
<ol>
<li>University of Southern California</li>
<li>Howard University</li>
<li>University of Miami</li>
<li>Florida State</li>
</ol>
<p>I really want to go to USC so I’m really waiting on an acceptance letter and a note from Bill Gates saying that I got it</p>
<p>Has anyone been able to log in</p>
<p>I was like that this morning. I would just wait until they probably e-mail us. They have to get back to thousands of people who applied.</p>
<p>I’m not sure when Finalists will be notified in March, but I believe it will be early March around the 9th-13th when looking back at all the other years’ threads.</p>
<p>@poeticbynature. Small world, huh? Lol. I considered UM, but when I found out it was a private school, I changed my mind. I’m pretty sure you’ll get into USC though!</p>
<p>Thanks! I pray so. I guess all we do is wait now since they obviously still locked the application. I guess more people applied than they expected.</p>
<p>We are able to check our status now. I just logged in to see that my package is complete. To all the people who were skeptical about their application you can log on now. Good luck! :)</p>
<p>Did anyone else notice that this year’s thread for the scholarship started a significant amount of time later than some past years? Good luck to all!!! 
can’t wait for notifications</p>
<p>Did anyone notice on the signature tab where it says “Parent signature” that your name is there instead of your parent’s? Is this supposed to happen?</p>
<p>Yeah this thread is moving slower too, but that’s what happens with each coming generation. Oh well</p>
<p>Mine just says signature, not parent signature. I don’t know what the problem can be other than if you’re under age? As long as it’s signed I’m thinking it’s okay. And yeah, I hope it goes faster, it seems like no one takes as much interest in these things anymore even though I registered as a member barely today.</p>
<p>Georgia State is a really cool school! It’s really diverse from what I have seen. I applied but I live way too close.</p>
<p>Yes!!! That is always a factor. That’s why I dropped UM. Now all of my schools are at least 8 hours away from home. I simply can’t deal with the same scenery for the next 4 years.</p>
<p>I know what you mean. That’s why I’m not trying to go to college near home. I’m tired if seeing the same thing every day.</p>
<p>Just to make sure…as long as your application status says complete then everything is good, right?</p>
<p>Yes… Pretty much</p>
<p>Once March comes along this thread is probably going to be flooded with posts.</p>
