Goizueta Scholars Applicants?

<p>Who applied to the goizueta scholars program?</p>

<p>i did ...when do we find out?</p>

<p>I'm not sure. I'm guessing about the same time the Emory Scholars find out but I'm not even sure when that is.</p>

<p>Last year, Emory Scholar applicants found about Semi-Finalist status on January 16, but no one seems to know the exact date this this year.</p>

<p>i applied too...i heard there were only going to be about 10 recipients...yikes!</p>

<p>yup, i applied. do u guys have your decisions yet? emory scholars people just got their decisions online but i didnt get one for goizueta.....</p>

<p>i looked but couldnt find anything</p>

<p>Okay, so basically we have a few scenarios as it is almost 12:00EST</p>

<p>1) There is noone on CC who was named a semi-finalist for Goizueta Scholars (very possible, but sort of unlikely).</p>

<p>2) There are alot of people who would never think to check OPUS on a Sunday ( and they don't hang out on CC)</p>

<p>3) The Goizueta Semi-finalists were not released yet (unlikely, but possible)</p>

<p>4) We all have to wait until April for admissions decisions...Ugh....Very, very likely....</p>

<p>any news??????</p>

<p>bagel: Apparently, linkin839 got one of the infamous "rejection" e-mails yesterday (he/she was on another link), but one of the very few.....I actually communicated through PM with many other Emory Scholar applicants and all of them heard nothing......Again, not sure what this means; I can't imagine that it is good news (especially in my d's case---stats were nowhere near the semi's posted).....but my guess is that snail mail will be the way we hear....I kind of prefer that; yesterday really taxed my nerves not knowing what was going on all day.....</p>

<p>Has anybody heard decisions yet for the Goizueta Scholars?</p>

<p>I'm bumping this again since the acceptance thread does not designate whether anyone has been named semi-finalist for Goizueta....we still haven't heard either way....Anyone else?</p>

<p>I'd like to call and ask. Does anybody happen to have a number to call? I have looked online but can't find anything. I would imagine a separate committee specific to the business program evaluates the applications. Last year there were just over 100 applications, so it is quite possible nobody on here receives it. I doubt the decisions have been released yet. You would think that even a rejection letter would be heard of on here if they had been.</p>

<p>Tristin: I think linkin839 received a "rejection" e-mail on Sunday (even though it said "Emory Scholars" not Goizueta)....Other than that, nada...I guess if you wanted to call you could contact Maureen Sweatman (who is the Emory Scholars chairperson) and find out.....My d would just as soon wait and see so that it doesn't interfere with her concentration for midterms.....</p>

<p>BTW, only 100 applications? Where did you hear that? It seems so low compared to 2,500 Emory Scholars apps.....</p>

<p>TRistin: Here is the contact info...Not sure which person is responsible for Goizueta:</p>

<p>Thanks for the numbers. I'll call tomorrow after school. As for the applicant numbers, I visited Emory and met with and Admissions Director. She filled me in on the Goizueta program and the scholarship opportunity. The program is new as of last year, so there are not as many applicants/scholarships awarded. It is from her that I learned of the applicant number from last year.</p>

<p>i called them on the number listed on the goizueta scholars application and they said:</p>

<p>THEY HAVE NOT RELEASED THE SEMI-FINALISTS YET</p>

<p>they are waiting for something from the central admissions.</p>

<p>Wow. Thanks so much for someone finally answering a question about the Goizueta Scholars lol. All the hype with the Emory Scholars got me nervous.</p>

<p>Then why did I get an Emory Scholars rejection email?</p>

<p>Just got "rejection" e-mail through admissions.....Uh, only 10 people were selected as finalists (no semi-finalists round)!!!!! If any of you wonder children got it, congratulations!!!! Let us know......</p>

<p>BTW, linkin839: My d e-mail specifically talked about Goizueta, so I'm not sure what happened with your application that you got one from Emory Scholars.</p>
