<p>I believe Owlie was meaning she didn't make semi's. There was no notification from RBS unless you made semi's, so I think she called them. D's boyfriend called as well after she had received notification, and he was told his family income was too high, but they didn't state any specific cutoff.</p>
<p>Has anyone gotten a call from Ron Bron Scholar program today?</p>
<p>D has not yet received one yet today, have you? Does anyone know if they are contacting all 61 with acceptance or rejection, or just the 20 who are finalists?</p>
<p>No I haven't received a call yet, I think it might be like you said, tomorrow Friday 22. Hopefully they call all 61 semi-finalists, so we can all know.</p>
<p>Owlie who I pmed said that she was in fact a semi-finalist and got a denial via telephone ..so we'll see</p>
<p>so has anyone else besides Owlie got a phone call? Man I need to stop worrying about this!</p>
<p>Oh, sorry Owlie that I incorrectly stated your status. My D is working 6 shifts at her job this week, so she left me her cell phone in case "the call" came in and made sure I knew what area code they would be calling from! :)</p>
<p>has anyone heard anything yet?</p>
<p>D called them, she was told all 61 would be notified, but it would be by snail mail, and probably not today. Why don't you call and see if you are told anything different?</p>
<p>i spoke to someone who got it last year and they said that they got an email saying they got it a week after she fax her stuff off ..</p>
<p>what i dont get is how has owlie been called if they are going to be notifying.. now..
i though maybe they were calling 10 people each day and rejecting them and then they would notify the 20 people today.. but i have no clue..</p>
<p>I guess it will just have to be "wait and see" all day! DD says she is checking every class period even though they told her it would be via snail mail. My guess it will be similar to semi's notification, e-mail, regular mail and possibly fax to the school like 2 weeks ago.</p>
<p>Edit: I like your thinking about how they might be notifying, one could only hope that is what they were doing! :)</p>
<p>im from georgia also btw</p>
<p>Tiffanyst12, I just sent you pm.</p>
<p>HAS.. anyone heard anything yet? whether good or bad? email? phonecall?</p>
<p>I haven't heard anything back, has anyone else?</p>
<p>D just got e mail, they are not making decisions till middle of next week. They say this is the toughest year of decisions.</p>
<p>Wow- makes me excited and nervous at the same time!</p>
<p>So is everyone getting this email or did they just your daughter one because as you said, she called to earlier?</p>
<p>She did not even identify herself when she called this morning, so no, it was to all, not just her. The e-mail was sent at 5:47, and says "semi-finalist's, sorry for the delay, we will not have a decision till the middle of next week because the decision is so difficult." I just paraphrased that whole thing, but that is what it says in essence.</p>
