<p>Did any one else receive an email notification of being selected as a Finalist for the McKenna Achievement Award/Scholarship? It pays $10k for up to four years. The interviewing competition will be held on campus on March 3rd & 4th. I wonder how many of us were invited to come?</p>
<p>My son has been invited. Anyone else from New England?</p>
<p>Were your mid term grades submitted before you received notification of the award?</p>
<p>I think they probably crossed in the mail. I'm guessing the decision was made without mid year report.</p>
<p>did they apply ED or RD?</p>
<p>The decision was made before my mid-year report was sent. We don't get our grades until the end of this coming week. BTW, I applied RD.</p>
<p>does anyone know if all finalists have already been notified? i'm kinda bummed..</p>
<p>you had to submit your app before december 31 to qualify i believe</p>
<p>i think it was december 1st; i met that somewhat at the sacrifice of improving my essays, but i'm still hopeful. anyone know if everyone's been notified already?</p>
<p>is it by email, or regular mail? if they all got sent out already, im bummed.</p>
<p>maybe mail to hawaii takes longer?</p>
<p><em>fingers crossed</em></p>
<p>They sent out an email first. The letter came about five days later</p>
