<p>Has anyone heard any notification yet? I heard that semifinalists are notified around first week of February.</p>
<p>Hi my son applied and has not heard anything yet.</p>
<p>Nothing yet.</p>
<p>Any updates?</p>
<p>Their facebook page says they’re sending notification Wednesday the 15th.</p>
<p>Thanks for the info!</p>
<p>Oh thank god, hahaha</p>
<p>Does anyone know how many applicants ND get’s for the HY scholars program each year? I’m wondering if I should even get my hopes up. thx</p>
<p>website says there were 700 applicants last year</p>
<p>I think that I read somewhere they are anticipating a little over a 1,000 HYSP apps this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if that number is true (or even more than that) because similar scholarships at schools like Villanova saw a spike this year in the number of apps. I believe they take 100 semi-finalists, so the competition certainly is tough! Best of luck to you all.</p>
<p>Anyone hear anything yet?</p>
<p>Haven’t heard anything. For those of you who applied, will getting the scholarship make the difference as to going to ND, or are you going to ND regardless?</p>
<p>Likewise. I haven’t heard anything. If I get HYSP, it will definitely be a great incentive for me to go to ND. If not, it will be hard to turn down some full rides I have to state schools.</p>
<p>I’m getting probably nothing in need-based aid from ND, so this is a deciding factor for me in terms of going here or to another school that I have half-tuition at :/</p>
<p>Any news???</p>
<p>Semi-finalist! I’m so surprised!</p>
<p>Congrats tehsummit! I didn’t get it, and it was a deciding factor – I also got in early to MIT, so I guess it makes my decision a bit easier.</p>
<p>I’ve yet to receive any notification either way. Are they sending emails only to those chosen as semi finalists, or are those not selected being notified as well?</p>
<p>They are also sending to those not selected…</p>
<p>Semi-finalist!!! Yay! I was really concerned because I applied under regular decision… but nonetheless. hehehehehe</p>
