<p>I just posted this... but i thought i should start my own thread. So, I just got the infamous scholarship rejection letter. However, there are a few sentences in there that confused me: "our committee has been extremely impressed with you and hope that your interest in the University of Richmond will remain strong. THe official good news will arrive in your mailbox in late march."
Has anyone else recieved this in their letter? Could this possibly be a "likely letter?" It would be a serious bummer to open the "good news" in my mailbox, and find out that i've been rejected. </p>
<p>hey!
I got the same letter yesterday, they took so many sentences to tell us that we were rejected for the scholarship. I also wondered about those few sentences on how the "good news" would arrive in late march.. its confusing. so what were your stats? anything big that you think should have gotten you to the final round?
i just wonder the stats of those who moved on and those of us who didnt....
oh richmond richmond
post when you get a chance!</p>
<p>I talked to some other people that apparently got a different letter. THere letter still rejected them for the scholarship, but didn't mention anything about good news in march. So it appears that those few lines were good for us. l0l My stats i thought were about average. My sat scores are my weak spot, 670 cr, 560 m, 640 w. But I think i'm ranked number 2/~350, which i suppose is my best asset. My activities include: President of Model UN, Yearbook Editor, Varsity Cheerleading captain, founder of a bookclub, and active homecoming dance commitee member. I also have the usual:member of Beta, Key Club, soccer, and a church youth group. I didn't expect to get the scholarship, but i hope they are generous with need based aid. I'm also curious about the stats of people that moved on. What are your stats? I really hope this letter means i should expect an acceptance, as i am extremely anxious about this school and UVA. </p>
<p>ya same letter here with the "good news in march" I have a 3.7uw with a schedule that consisted of 8 honors classes and 6 aps. ACT was ok i guess, 29. Pres of FBLA, sailing, nhs... the usual. haha hopefully we all get in.</p>
<p>yea i got the letter too. id much rather have gotten something saying "you'll recieve your decision in march" because now im even more anxious, but i guess what can u do but chill. waiting is awful.</p>
<p>Leah! you have pretty good stats, quite better than mine...
top 7% of the class
3.86 cumulative gpa
LOW sats... 1710
my toefl (english as second language) 710 out of 720
Natl Honor Society....
Peer Tutor...
and then the usual, President of two clubs, founder of another, lots of community service and internship experiences.. and some other things but basically as far as numbers those are it.</p>
<p>someone else from my school got the same letter we did, i wonder who did not get that one special sentence in the letter...</p>
<p>Elpadrino, when you called, what did you ask? I'm really surprised they gave a decision out like that! I wonder if they would tell me if i called. l0l.. hmmm
Leah</p>
<p>yea seriously i'd almost feel a little wierd asking about that on the phone but if they really give u the decision just like that then who knows.</p>
<p>awesome. UVA, University of Illinois-urbana, and lsu-honors. Have you gotten any decisions yet? I'm just waiting for UVA, which is my first choice. I really wish i would have applied to chicago. I was reluctant because i didn't feel my stats were good enough at the time.</p>
