Jack Kent Cooke Undergraduate Scholarship 2014-2015

This foundation have change my life for the best even if I don’t get this scholarship.

I had to get two jobs while going to school to be able to pay for everything this semester. I so hope I get it but if not then I know it went to someone who needed it more.

I love that all of you are supporting each other through this!! There is such positivity happening here! Each of you are going to be successful, no matter the outcome of this scholarship. Don’t let anything stop you from achieving your goal- your undergrad degree is so important. Sending out good vibes to all of you :slight_smile:

I wish everyone best of luck. I am currently told that i will never succeed and focusing on education is wrong. I come home and im laughed at . Just remember, if somebody laughs at your life choices they do not deserve to be around you. If someone can not support your dream they are not real friends /family. For the third day i come home to accusations of being a***ole and what not and that education will bring me to homelessness and i will have no friends. People can be very very mean, even people you expect to be your rock and your support system

@Mariia2406 it takes an aggressive motion to polish a rough stone. seriously, you’re going to come out lovely from all this. real lovely. we always seek stability in turbulence. and that quest is going to do wonders for you. that said, i’m real sad about your situation.

@Mariia2406 i moved when I was 16 to get away from negativity like that. Don’t let anything get you down :x

@Mariia2406 Friends are the family you get to choose. I’m really happy you won the scholarship and will have the opportunity to surround yourself with like-minded companions.

I dropped my phone in the lake and I can’t get a new one for a week. What happens if they call and I obviously don’t answer? (If I get the scholarship)

@FamilyCounciling, can you check your messages from a different phone?

@adorse26 Idk how I would do that. I’m trying to figure that out

Do we know how many scholarships have been given out so far?

@FamilyCounciling No idea! We had over a dozen students apply, but no one will give out any info yet. I’ll find out tomorrow afternoon if I got it.

Hey y’all! I just got a call from my advisor that I won!!! I’m still crying but I wanted to let everybody know. I can’t believe it.

Congrats @sosm1301!

@sosm1301 CONGRATULATIONS!!!

How do we know when our schools will be calling? I wonder if anyone from my school has ever won?

We have a PTK induction on Wednesday. I believe if I don’t hear anything then I will just wait for the rejection e-mail.

@nekozuki did you get any update?

Nobody knows about this scholarship from my school, and IT looks like we have never had an applicant from this college. The is no rep from this college on this scholarship, I don’t know how the foundation will contact my school.

I emailed my school today to see if we had any winners and this is the reply I got…

“We did have a couple of winners. That will be announced soon.”

Ahh why did I email them?!
