<p>i'm tempted to stay home tomorrow and check on my e-mail every 30 seconds lol</p>
<p>lol...i have my inbox open since this morning...</p>
<p>c'mon, let the asians know already!</p>
<p>I feel really bad that they leave so many people hanging like this. I think they need a new way of notifying people.</p>
<p>Me too...I'm checking my email like every five minutes and just praying and praying and praying...but I'm not going to loose hope :)</p>
<p>have all of the african americans been notified yet...i really hope not...</p>
<p>lol, it just occurred to me how funny it is when people ask how many are going to get the award this year...the name of the scholarship is gates millenium scholars... If they're going to increase the number of students from 1000, they have to change the name of the scholarship as well</p>
<p>i hope all of us haven't been notified yet- why the gap in the notifications?</p>
<p>I hope so too...I really don't know why there's a gap in the notifications. I think all the emails should go out at the same time some of us are very nervous and want to know :]</p>
<p>For those of you who have not yet been notified have you tried calling gms or check the status of your application?</p>
<p>hmm, are we supposed to hear something for the status? The machine keeps telling me I'm not in the database...uhoh</p>
<p>it told me the same thing nd when i talked to a woman there she told me that the database has been closed since january like after the time we submitted our apps</p>
<p>if it was closed after the time we submitted our apps, shouldn't our information be in there?</p>
<p>so if the phone system says my app wasn't found, there's no need to be worried?</p>
<p>Has anyone tried calling and checking the status.</p>
<p>it helps..i heard..i am going to try right now</p>
<p>I tried it doesn't work :(</p>
<p>it doesnt help.. trust me those ladies that answer the fones have nasty attitudes:(</p>
<p>yea i remember calling and the message said i wasn't in the system either but i made semifinalist so don't worry.</p>
<p>just got my letter!!! and they are calling me a finalist!!!</p>
<p>OMG OMG OMG ... THANK YOU GOD!!!</p>
<p>I HOPE YOU GUYS GET YOUR EMAILS SOON!!!</p>
<p>I'm Asian!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I Just Got Mine!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>congratulations y'all! I'm still waiting for mine...</p>
