Goldwater scholarship - What do you know?

<p>Just called, they said by the end of the week we shall know…</p>

<p>Man. I guess after waiting three months I can handle another three days. Thanks for making the effort to call them.</p>

<p>It wasn’t even in my mind until recently but now I’m getting really anxious, I don’t think I’ll get it anyways</p>

<p>My advisor had emailed me sayin (a long time ago) that it would be announced on March 30th…I don’t know how accurate that is, but I believe it based off of last years results</p>

<p>ah maybe they like to announce on wednesdays?</p>

<p>it doesnt help that im currently 6 hours ahead of eastern US time >:-O</p>

<p>I hope you’re right however I think you or your advisor may be thinking about the date on which the official notices are mailed out, which is indeed March 30th. In any case, I’ve always been told “late March” and last year it was on the 31st so it could be today or tomorrow but we’ll know soon.</p>

<p>is there a delay between the mailing date and the date of the update on the website that contains the list of scholars?</p>

<p>I don’t know if there’s necessarily a delay. From what I’ve heard the letters are mailed out right around when the website is updated (could be a day or two before or after), which is the earliest method of notification.</p>

<p>okay turns out that everyone finds out on the web first, i may have been the only one ignorant of that fact, hopefully the committee doesn’t see that mistake</p>

<p>The list is up.</p>

<p>I got it!!!</p>

<p>!!!~ I got it!!!</p>

<p>And I got it Too!</p>

<p>lol. Big congrats to all of y’all.</p>

<p>Is it possible to go for Goldwater more than once if u don’t get it the 1st time?</p>

<p>^^^</p>

<p>So long as you still meet the requirements, you can apply a second time.</p>

<p>So, has anyone heard any news about the 2012 Goldwater Scholarships? One website that I looked at said, specifically, that the announcement would be made on March 30, but the Goldwater website just says late March. I’m dying of anticipation lol…</p>

<p>is it okay that my recommender is a post doc and a math instructur , beside the PI</p>

<p>nominated by my school, applying this year!</p>

<p>Same here for my son. Good luck everyone!</p>
