Gates Millennium Scholarship - 2008-2009

<p>Don't worry guys, the "big envelope" is in transit.</p>

<p>what will i do if i don't get gates? omg, i really need this scholarship!</p>

<p>so does anyone know if the scholar login on the gms page is for scholars only or for anyone that signs up for it? I still don't know why they gave me a username and password for it.</p>

<p>csn897, u haven't received a packet yet? what did u ask them that they just gave u the password & username? Well, that's strange!</p>

<p>no i didnt receive a packet yet, i just asked if i had a username and password for the scholar login and they just gave me it.</p>

<p>so any asians on the west coast received anything yet?</p>

<p>Nope, have yet to received anything. If it does not arrive within this week, I am doomed.</p>

<p>JohnN ... when did you fax everything?</p>

<p>Off Topic: I got a scholarship for $2,000 today ... it's petty, but its something :).</p>

<p>Hi Guys,
I know this forum is dedicated in helping you about scholarships. My friend, Phuong Duong is currently in the running for a 20k scholarship among several semi-finalists. We all would really appreciate it if you can take a few seconds of your time and vote for her. Out of all the people in this world, I believe this girl deserves this scholarship, and I need your help to make it possible. Thanks! </p>

<p>well I have been active in this forum for a while please believ my link, My school has been announced that it will be relocated for teh upcoming school year, although I will no longer be at the school I will not like it to be evicted, can u please sign the petition that we have for the school district <a href="http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/save-the-home-of-life-academy-high-school%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/save-the-home-of-life-academy-high-school&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>please and thank you, I had posted this before but it didnt have any effect</p>

<p>the ***** website is legit. i voted for her :) hoped i changed a life haha </p>

<p>and for some insight tips for everyone:
when i check my scholar email, there was a test email that i received on march 21. so if you guys are really desperate and really can't wait no more, i'd suggest you guys calling gates up for a password and id (if they'll give it to you). if you can log in....you're in</p>

<p>ityoom, u got the finalist notification today? so u only have 9 days to submit ur docs, right?</p>

<p>so i voted for that girl and mosvalublpleyo, i'll sign ur petition...</p>

<p>mosvalublpelayo, i went on the website...i signed it but im not sure if I did or not cuz it asks me to log in after clicking 'sign'...do i need to register?</p>

<p>ok, i signed ur petition! </p>

<p>Any new notifications today?</p>

<p>Hey, I have been reading this forum since I became notified as a finalist. Today I finally found the time to reply and post some messages. I am Asian, from the east coast. I was notified as a finalist on March 10th. I mailed in (not faxed) all of my forms on the 14th. It was confirmed on the 19th that all my documents were in. As of Monday, which was the 31st, I received the Gates Millennium Packet from APASF with an official letter and certificate saying that I am a scholar. As of stats:
- No AP classes (my school doesnt offer any) but my transcript was on point
- My essays were on point
- Unweighted GPA 3.8
- 5-6 leadership and community service contribution </p>

<p>Oh yeah, the date on the official letter said March 27th...</p>
