@CherryBlossom22 I didn’t get the second email. I was asking about the initial semifinalist emil that people got to try and figure out if those emails were all sent on the same day to people. Good luck to you!
Ahh sorry about that. I can tell you that I and another from my college received our semi-finalist emails on two different days. Hope that means good news for you.
@CherryBlossom22 thank you so much. That’s actually a reason to hold out hope! I appreciate it.
can you ask your friend if she received the email as well
it dosen’t make sense if they would tell us that we’re a semifinalists then reject us before the final?
@nickybee I received my original email March 8th 12:43pm MST (I think?) Arizona has a strange time zone set up. When did daylight savings time start?
@ForestryGuy last weekend I think
Alright I’m taking a break from all things JKC related until monday when I can call them. I’m losing my mind over here. Enjoy your weekend guys!
I don’t think if you have not received an email then you’re still not in the process, because they said they " may request additional info from you"
I’am also a semi-finalist and received the e-mail March 8 at 2:48 pm. However I have not received an e-mail that some have received today asking for additional information. Lets all keep having faith guys!!!
Yes @mifit that’s the spirit. I refuse to give up hope yet. Still believing for the scholarship. Congrats so far @ForestryGuy.
YESS!!! @graceunworthy need to be optimistic now more than ever!!! I’am just curious if every time you make it to a phase it would be sign by the Executive Director Harold O. Levy just like it was sign when we received the letter that we had made it to the semi-finalist.
Yeah, I think you all are over analyzing this, I doubt it’s the next phase. I just think that certain people with unusual circumstances got chosen out to double check, and for the rest of you they didn’t see the need to double check because it was straight forward. For example I’m over 30, so no parental tax forms, and my taxes were odd to say the least, and I have no assets. They probably just wanted to make sure I had filled out the forms correctly or that I wasn’t lying.
Yea I think I am over analyzing but I’ am glad @ForestryGuy that just like you and many of us have made it to semifinalist and are anxiously waiting for another good news any time soon!!! wish you the best @ForestryGuy and let’s all keep supporting one another!!!
@nickybee
I honestly think that is a huge conclusion to jump to about the email. It was already said that “sometimes” they need addtional information. relax. For all we know people who did not get an email are getting the scholarship and the people who received the email are in jeoporady of not getting it so they are really taking a closer look at their fiances before making a decision. Thing is, we dont know, but seriously dont make yourself sick by convincing yourself of your own made up conspiracy theory. I get it… it sucks. Yet all you can do is take a deep breathe and Relax.
agree, did you get the email as well? and maybe it was only for independent applicants? Im dependent tho @muffinpoptarte
i am relieved as hell that i didn’t have to go through this stage in the process.
some inquiries were made yesterday into the review/selection process but the foundation isn’t very forthcoming. it’s all very secretive. i imagine it takes place in a network of dark convents with shadowy illuminati exchanging news by courier crows.
and to add some much needed drama to your worries, i’ll remind people that the acceptance rate is between 2-3% and the candidates are made up of our nation’s top community college students.
you’re all pretty special.
So if we didn’t receive the email or did…what does that mean @optimisticky
Can you tell us more about what is going on? For people who received yesterday’s email and the ones who didn’t, please? @optimisticky
@mariahmsalah No he cant. O my goodness they just wrote they were glad they didnt have to go through that because what they went through last year was different. No one can tell us anything. No one knows what anything means! i just wrote a while post of not making oneself sick over making up theories in their head. Relax.
