@hellosun yes i received a call and got an email about an hour later confirming the award.
Has anyone else heard back? I am so anxious about this.
Welp…guess I didn’t get in
Hey guys, got the call yesterday that I received the scholarship and will be attending the Cambridge session. Good Luck to everyone. Give it a little time, they have 150 students to notify, but only 20 receive scholarships.
@JayLittle congrats! Do you mind sharing your stats? Also what school will you be attending in the Fall?
Oh no, I guess this means I didn’t get int. Awwwww, I was looking forward to this so much. Congrats to you all who got in. I hope it’s an awesome experience!
wait so if we haven’t heard anything does that mean we didn’t make it?
Did only Cambridge people heard back?
@annaboli maybe, i dont know. So far, only the Cambridge people have mentioned that they received feedback.
I’m still waiting. I hope they let you know if you were not accepted. I’d hate to keep on waiting for something that’ll never happen, lol
Did any California people been notified?
no one has mentioned here so far, so I can’t give you any conclusive answers, sorry. Still waiting myself
Someone from NYC heard back yesterday.
I spoke to a CSSI representative not too long ago, and they told me that they notify in early May.
@Suekabz yeah, no problem:
GPA: 4.0 (Unweighted) 4.5 (Weighted)
Rank: #2/50
ACT Score: 30
I will be attending The University of Alabama majoring in Computer Science. I have been enrolled at East MS Community College for 2 years and I have 52 credits already.
At school, I am SGA & Class President. I am marching band captain and I also play soccer. I have been a part of many service organizations and have over 800 community service hours. I have established my own business and I am an advocate for educational excellence for students across my region. Besides the Google Scholarship, I am a Ron Brown Captain, ELKS National Scholar, GE-Reagan Scholar Finalist, Gates Millennium Scholars Finalist, AABE Scholar, and a couple other stuff.
Who else will be attending the Cambridge session?
Did only people who applied for the Scholarship hear back?
Is it possible for those who applied for both get into the program and not get a scholarship?
@Ballerina016 I think you had to have applied to both to be considered for both if you aren’t a scholarship recipient.
@JayLittle OMG… your stats make me look insignificant. Now I REALLY feel like I’ve got no hopes for this thing…
After looking at a bunch of other CC threads, it seems that for this program the scholarship/program decisions are not sent out on the same day. So, some people will hear their news in April or May.
Because of the awkward scheduling, I definitely willing to bet that CSSI team is being lead by programmers rather than project managers. xD
@amanmibra LOLOLOL. You know, your claim is spot on; cuz I myself was thinking that it was google engineers handling this. Did you apply?
