@Prospective1998 JACKIE ROBINSON SCHOLAR TOO IM SOO HAPPY AND THANKFUL WE CAN MEET EACHOTHER NOW! :smiley:

I’M SO EXCITED!!!

That is really neat! Congrats to both of you and enjoy getting to know one another!

Do you guys think they’re still notifying students chosen?? And was it by call or by email? I was told I’d hear by the 15th, but my interview didn’t go as well as I had hoped so I’m not counting on being chosen

@SeattleChick They emailed us in Florida on Friday and I received a call from them (sobani warner who i think is in charge of the regional selections in Florida) today. They’re still letting people know.

@blackhuntress Ok thanks! I am so anxious, I emailed a contact and they told me they’re still choosing as well.

@SeattleChick I wish you luck! And hope you get it!

For any scholars, should I start a Facebook Group? Like/ comment if you think this is a good idea.

Wait until the new scholars convention @BlackHuntress . I don’t think everyone uses the collegeconfidential.

Oh ok! Thanks for the advice! Are you a scholar? @jeffreyOny

yah

@BlackHuntress

Oh ok! Thanks for answering!

@BlackHuntress @jeffreyOny @Prospective1998 Do you know anything about Upper Midwest decisions. i.e. Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, North/South Dakota?

Anyway know about the West Coast? I haven’t heard back at all. I emailed them a few days ago and they said I’d know by today and they were still making decisions.

Hi you guys if you haven’t heard anything back yet don’t freak out I just got an email saying I would be notified by the 24th I am on the west coast.

@TimTimLA I’m not sure about those regions but what I do know is that last year some people were hearing back as late as early July (like the first week). I think the best thing would be to email them and found out what’s going on.

@BlackHuntress thanks! I emailed them and was told that they are still processing my application and that I would be notified before the 24th.
