Lowe's scholarship

<p>Go kill people.</p>

<p>jk. just chill. they probably just haven't updated or something.</p>

<p>it took three days after my recommender submited his portion for it to say my application was complete. if they completed it before the March 15th 11:59 pm deadline for recommendations then i think you are fine.</p>

<p>blairb- Get your teacher to email them. My teacher had to do it, because my status never updated until just recently.</p>

<p>even if I submitted my application a few weeks ago, I could still make changes to it before the deadline right?? I made a few corrections to my already submitted application before the deadline approached, so I wonder if the website updated my information as well.</p>

<p>Is your application considered if your rec was after the 15?</p>

<p>it says the rec must be completed by the day before the deadline but who knows. They might accept it late</p>

<p>On my directions, it said March 16th was the deadline...</p>

<p>on the recommender's sheet it said that it must be submited by March 15th at 11:59pm</p>

<p>I applied about a month ago :D</p>

<p>and does anyone know when they'll tell us</p>

<p>How did you turn in the recommendation late?
The website closed???</p>

<p>^ The website is not closed, but the recommendation is long past due.</p>

<p>What exactly is the criteria for this one? I'm just trying to compile a list for next year. :)</p>

<p>My counselor tried to fill it out and he said that the website closed??</p>

<p>^ When did he/she try to fill it out?</p>

<p>At this point, I would say it's way too late to submit anything and still have it considered for the scholarship. I might be wrong but given when decisions were released last year, we should be expecting them soon...</p>

<p>so. . . . . when are we guessing that the semi-finalists are notified? the faq’s said that if you were selected to be a semi-finalist that you would be notified within two weeks of the online submission deadline. so i am gussing its gotta be some time this week.</p>

<p>Do you get a notification either way?</p>

<p>I don’t think so, I think only the semifinalists get notified. </p>

<p>Ok, so on one part of the page it says semis will be notified the last week of March, and another part says first week of April. Not a big deal, but they really need to get their dates straight (ie that and the submission date).</p>

<p>I guess by email? My son was a finalist for Best Buy and he got an email on 3/17. I am hopeful for Lowes. We have a big gap to fill for financial aid!!</p>
