<p>Hello? </p>

<p>(echo)</p>

<p><em>sigh</em></p>

<p>D definitely will be applying here. Anyone else?</p>

2

<p>Our son will apply to Rhodes.</p>

3

<p>Hey! I, too, am applying to Rhodes.</p>

4

<p>Did both of you visit Rhodes?</p>

<p>Out of curiosity, where else are you/your daughter applying? For us, the other schools are Rice, WashU, Emory, Centenary College, and LSU.</p>

5

<p>The Bellingraths won't divide by four.;) Count D in, too! Yes, she has visited. 4 times. Her list is so embarrassingly long and disparate I can't bring myself to post it but the main 6 that are at least sort of similar in size and make up (although obvious differences exist) are Hamilton, Scripps, Centre, Millsaps, Hendrix, and Hanover. Add to that a few larger schools and a couple of northern need only LAC's and you have it. Total anarchic pandemonium.</p>

6

<p>We've visited once, and she has a good friend who is a sophomore there. D is looking at Allegheny, Carleton, Davidson, and Tulane, among others.</p>

<p>Do you think they take you through the most confusing dorm on the tour on purpose?</p>

7

<p>Does anyone know who ( their stats) actually received the Bellingraths last spring (class of 2009)?</p>

8

<p>I haven't visited yet?I don't even know if I can (we're from Buffalo, NY so it's pretty far away). I've been on a bunch of those campus tours on the internet and got somewhat of a "feel" for the campus (it is drop-dead gorgeous!).<br>
I'm applying to U of Rochester, Kenyon, Beloit, Lawrence University, and Dickinson College. I'm going to pursue studies in ancient art, history, and archaelogy, as well as music composition.</p>

9

<p>Londonb, I sent you a PM.</p>

10

<p>Are International students elligible for Bellingrath?
Though I know that I hadn't met the deadline.Sigh</p>

11

<p>There's nothing on the Bellingrath information to indicate that the nominee must be a US citizen, so it looks like its open to internationals.</p>

12

<p>I C
But in the past has there been any?
I'm also wondering what stat Bellingrathers have.</p>

13

<p>im applying to rhodes too! =)</p>

14

<p>Anybody hear anything about scholarships? Bellingrath finalists?</p>

15

<p>Not yet. I think they have changed the notification date from March 1 to March 15. Bummer.</p>

16

<p>Actually, my D received notice as a Bellingrath finalist over a week ago. Very exciting! Apparently, they invite 21, then split them into 3 groups and pick one from each group - odd.</p>

<p>It was a little tricky because the scholarship weekend starts Sat. afternoon on 4/1, but she returns from a UK school trip that evening. Rhodes was very gracious about allowing her to arrive late and join the activities Sun. morning.</p>

<p>Congratulations to your daughter! Let us know how things turn out.</p>
