<p>I appreciate that! We, too, are in the Midwest so that is why I am so perplexed! Her high school nominated her—maybe those go to the high schools instead of the students’ homes? (we didn’t have school today)</p>
<p>Maybe since she was school-nominated! My daughter is not from a nominating high school, so she had to go through the “self nomination” process through the admissions office instead. Would urge her to email them if a letter doesn’t show up tomorrow! (Kinda wish that they emailed too!)</p>
<p>I mean wish that they emailed results too (not just snail mail!)</p>
<p>DFTBA97 - are you accompanying your D? The program looks like its designed just for the students and they are rooming with another student. But we have an almost 6 hour drive and I don’t want her going it totally alone in the winter weather. I am thinking I will ride with her and then make myself scarce (different hotel and maybe just enjoy poking around downtown Bloomington)…</p>
<p>Yes, we are going with her. We plan to drop her off and then spend one night in French Lick, which is about an hour away. </p>
<p>@kidsrexpensive and @DFTBA97 I just got the mail and she got her letter today—finally!! I will go up and stay for the weekend so if you want to get together, message me and I can give you a tour of the campus and B’town (I am an alumna!) So excited for these kids! What a big opportunity!</p>
<p>Hi 81223mom - YEAH - glad your daughter heard!!! I will PM you - would love to get together. I know noone from Indiana, so a little company during the weekend would be welcome!</p>
<p>@81223mom - Congratulations!!! We are planning to head for French Lick after we drop off our daughter. Hope you and @kidsrexpensive have a lot of fun in Bloomington! </p>
<p>I am in state and was finally notified of my finalist status today. I already have the Provost Scholarship ($8000/year) and another that pays my tuition more or less in full, but Wells will provide me so many more opportunities :)</p>
<p>Congratulations @Nobody426!! That is a great accomplishment to be awarded the interview! So sorry you had to sweat it so long to get your letter! Good luck to you and all of the interviewees!</p>
<p>Fingers crossed for good news this weekend to all the posters whose kiddos went to finalist weekend! :->!</p>
