<p>Anybody applying? I think if you are one of the 140 winners you get $2500.</p>
<p>Yup! Ill be applying 
I have not yet submitted my app but I am hoping to get it in later this week (: Best of luck to you risubu!</p>
<p>Good luck to you too! For the essay, I’m writing about three different community service projects. What about you? Are you writing in depth about one, or more?</p>
<p>Thank you! Well there is one annual service project that I have attended for several years that I am thinking about discussing. But I have also recently been attending several community garden style projects where I have helped to work the land and spruce up local parks that may more directly apply to the community impact they are talking about.
As Im sure you can see, I don’t have a very solid idea down yet. I have had a bad habit of scrambling last minute to throw together these essays within a few days of the deadline. With AP work piling up, I have had a hard time finding motivation to do more work to compile an essay (x</p>
<p>Ah, I see. Well, you could always recycle your college application essays ;)</p>
<p>My application is done! Just now a’waiting.</p>
<p>Also applied; Good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>I just submitted my application, although I don’t have high hopes.
4.5 GPA, 2220 SAT, 9 AP, 12 honors, decent community service, recycled essay.
On the older thread, I saw some people with 4.7s and 2400s didn’t get it. Can anyone who received the scholarship post stats?</p>
<p>Oops, also, does anyone know when we will be hearing anything from them?</p>
<p>Nope, i got no clue. Figure it’ll be around May/June though.</p>
<p>AHH I still haven’t submitted my application! Does anybody know the exact time it ends? The site only says Feb. 28!</p>
<p>Going to submit mine today.</p>
<p>pretty sure the site is down…</p>
<p>Was about to submit and the site crashed. Oh Joy.</p>
<p>Yep. wow, shouldn’t they have prepared for this?</p>
<p>Same boat. Procrastination nation. Has this happened in years past?</p>
<p>No idea but I worked really hard on my application. I neglected other important work just to finish it. I’d hate if it was for nothing 
I can’t even get onto the website to find someone to contact…</p>
<p>still not working, anyone?</p>
<p>Nope. Anyone have their contact email?</p>
<p>I got an email about a week ago saying that it should be open until midnight CST. So there’s still an hour, maybe it will start working? We can only cross our fingers.</p>
