LEDA Scholars Application: 2018-2019

Uh, I’m not quite sure the numbers or percentage, but people still do get rejected after interview rounds. Here’s my guess lol: Round 1: 1300. Round 2: 250ish Round 3: 150 (?) and then the final 100. This is just my guess, might be wrong haha

Ya I am freaking out because I still don’t know if I moved to the second round. Should I be worried?

They do it on a rolling basis, you might get it a bit later.

@jhong0811 You’re a LEDA celebrity! I’ve always dreamt of meeting you online: P In all seriousness though, are a hundredish people really cut from round 2 because of income statements and such? This is kinda scary now.

god im so scared, ive been checking my email like theres no tmrw :frowning:

We should all make a groupchat!

I got accepted into round 2, does anyone know how they eliminate past that or how the interview goes? I’m clueless about their process.

@collegekid1337 Haha, thank you! I guess I’m just out going lol and don’t stress, idk if the numbers are right lmaoo

And also @Cutiejatt , we have a group chat with some prospective applicants! They ask questions, etc. and to pass round two, it’s mainly just making sure the documents and incomes are right. Interviews are very conversational. They just want to know you!

@jhongn22 For 2018-19, how can one join lol?

Hi, how can I join that group chat?

Got it! Thank you so much :smiley:

Some people at my school got the email already. Should I be worried? :frowning:

Ya ppl from my school also got the email already

i still havent gotten anything D: and i dont know anyone else from my region that applied either t.t
and @Cutiejatt Congrats!!

Hi everyone!!! I have the honor of also moving on to Phase II—I got the email today during third period, about seven hours ago, and I was so excited I took the hall pass to go to the bathroom and call my mom. Best of luck to you all! The email did say, “Please note that we are notifying applicants on a rolling basis. This means that not all applicants will know the status of their application at the same time.”

For me, the deadline to submit the materials was Mach 4th. I’m unsure as to whether that applies to everyone, or just people notified in this first wave.

Congrats

LETS GOOOO, ROUND 2 BABY

Do u guys think I should email them?

I don’t think you need to worry yet. The email they sent to applicants who received their decisions said they were notifying people on a rolling basis, and based upon last years thread they notified up until early March, so you may just receive your email notification a few days later.

Okay thanks
