I’m checking my email every 15 mins
Hey everyone, this is my second year of going thru this wait and all I can say hold tight. I promise you the answer will most likely come from this forum before anything else. I know anxiety is running high but they added over 20 winners from last years high school winners so hopefully we are in line for some higher numbers than last year. To answer your questions, 28 years old, Live in South Florida, plan to go to UM. I did receive the extra financial email in Feb but nothing else since.
I don’t mean to panic yall BUT It seems that JKC is notifying schools, I read a FB post about a winner selected in Mississippi for the Undergraduate Award. Good luck everyone and hopefully that info helps.
Yes, I just got to know that the finalist is from Pearl River Community College.
Deep breath
So it’s begun. I’m so so so excited for the moment someone posts their winner status here. I’m saving a very strong virtual hug for that person, whoever they may be. <3
I feel like throwing up :)) Good luck everyone!!!
I just found out someone from my district won ( at a different college)!!
Lets keep each other updated!
I am so anxious!! They should have just uploaded a list of finalist online on their website.
How are winners being notified ?
Email? Call?
Colleges are told first so they can surprise or tell the winners how they see fit, in a week or two then JKC will send out emails to all with your status.
OMG its killing me that we have to wait! I just left school for a week and half of spring break!! My school is going to have to call me to tell me… IF I EVEN WIN!! I legit need to settle down…
Me too. I can’t wait any longer!
@CAALMZ_01 The guy I know that won, his PTK advisor told him.
Hi guys! I AM FREAKING OUT !!! OMG OMG! @“TexasRosé_” how did you find out?
@norcalbusiness Oh geez, that’s super stressful! Give 'em a call. I’m sure they can tell you. Deep breaths! We’re so close to the end.
With the whole dashboard-changing debacle, realize I am most likely not one of the scholars, and I’ve already made my peace with this scholarship (I say this as I check my email every 10 seconds). Good luck everyone! You all are such wonderful people and you deserve the world. Even if this scholarship isn’t awarded, please know that being a semi-finalist is a huge, huge deal and can still be put on CVs & resumes for years. An early congratulations to the winners! Please continue to post your acceptances on here. I’ll be delighted to see how far everyone goes!
(Sorry, I get sappy when I’m at my wit’s end.)
I’m new here btw so hello !! (:
Cooome on, I wanna hear from someone in this thread loool
So it’s safe to say that our college reps know by now. Are you any of you gonna contact them? Or immerse yourself in the surprise? 
@AGoodFloridian I have no clue who my college rep is… Are you going to call or contact your rep?
