<p>^ You just made my day! Thank you, and good luck to everyone! I hope we are all posting in a few days with good news!</p>
<p>This waiting is tough could be next Thurs before mail gets to my house</p>
<p>I’m a finalist! They sent out emails.</p>
<p>Congrats Danigirl! That’s great I hope S is…he’s away on a retreat and doesn’t have email access. :(.</p>
<p>Two years ago w and l sent a big, fat envelope with the invitation to be a finalist. It was post marked jan 25, 2010. No email came with that invitation. fYI. Just stating the facts from 2010.</p>
<p>S also received an email tonight that he’s a Johnson finalist ,and also a regional competition finalist ( happy for him!) so they may be changing the notification process .</p>
<p>I’m a finalist too.</p>
<p>Congrats to your son S2012d2017 and to you sammoc! Hope to see you in Lexington!</p>
<p>Finalist here too.
I look forward to meeting everyone!!</p>
<p>Congrats to the finalists. I didn’t get any email, so I guess that I won’t be able to attend W&L now… Not very happy… Actually sad…</p>
<p>I’m really sorry Specific. I’m sure other doors will open for you. There are many great schools. Take care.</p>
<p>I didn’t get any email either…I really thought I had a shot at it too.
Great job to all you finalists, although I say that with a tinge of sadness. What more can one do than try?</p>
<p>I realize that international students are very rarely selected as ‘Johnson Scholars’, if any.</p>
<p>Still, I would like to ask if any international students have heard anything regarding the ‘JOHNSON SCHOLARS’ Competition, like the info on whether you have advanced to the finalist round.</p>
<p>Anybody got a Johnson rejection email? Is everyone who got accepted receiving an email invitation?</p>
<p>My S also got an invitation via email yesterday. Very excited, as it is his first choice school.</p>
<p>no rejection email, but my letter came to today</p>
<p>Coppijr, did you get a rejection letter in the mail, or an invitation to compete? My S hasn’t gotten an e-mail or a letter yet, so we’re wondering if that means that he is definitely not invited to compete.</p>
<p>LR4150, I haven’t got any email or letter either. And I think that is a sort of notification in itself that one hasn’t advanced into the Finalist Round.</p>
<p>Yes, that’s what I was thinking too. Oh well, there are certainly plenty of other good opportunities out there…</p>
<p>For those that didn’t receive invitation for Johnson scholarship weekend and for those that don’t win a scholarship, don’t give up on W&L as they are very good with financial aid especially if your family makes less than $100k. My son is a senior now and W&L ended up being cheaper than in if he had attended an in state Virginia school. First year’s was not that great, but it got better every year from then on.</p>
