<p>lol in places like these, being asian is as "under-represented" as whites are. which doesn't work for me =</p>
<p>BUT i'm a girl. so <em>crosses fingers</em>
does anyone have an idea what they look for??</p>
<p>

Does anyone consider Greeks an under-represented minority?/quote]</p>
<p>It's not in NASA SHARP's definition of an URM</p>
<p>I don't think greeks are....</p>
<p>Anyone get any more rejections?</p>
<p>For those that are wondering, go to the link i posted one or two pages back and the site has a group photo. 12 females, 8 males, 2 white males, one asian male, one indian male.</p>
<p>No rejection letters for me yet:) I check the mailbox every single day and am so scared that there is going to be a rejection letter. So far so good though. I'm really hoping I get an interview.
By the way, does anybody who went to NASA Sharp last year remember when the interviews took place. I have to go visit my grandparents April 7-14 and am afraid I'll miss the interview if they call!</p>
<p>haha.. yea same here... so far no rejection letter. I may be wrong, but I think that they will tell us whether or not we will be getting an interview by April 15th, and then they'll interview us afterwards...</p>
<p>i havent recieved any informatioin yet either... im getting quite nervous... Nasa sharp seems like such a great opportunity, </p>
<p>hope all of us get it in</p>
<p>I'm A Finalist:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):
SO AMAZINGLY EXCITED! I THOUGHT IT WAS AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE, I'M STILL PINCHING MYSELF BECAUSE I'M SURE I'M DREAMING!!!! THIS WAS MY DREAM EVER SINCE I FOUND OUT ABOUT IT!!!!!!!:)</p>
<p>wow, congrats! residential or commuter?</p>
<p>Residential:) I have my interview tomorrow I think because I was gone when they called. I'm excited but really nervous too. Does anybody know how many people they cut after the interviews?</p>
<p>zpmqxonw, what are some of your stats? Are you an URM? I was consoling myself with the fact that I was underage, but so are you yet you are a finalist....grrr...</p>
<p>I also am a finalist! Woohoo! (I'm new to this board, hello :) )</p>
<p>I was also gone when this lady from NASA called, so I will also be having my interview tomorrow. Does anyone know what this means - will I be definitely getting in? According to my mom, the lady said that I was being "accepted" for the NASA Sharp program...she doesn't remember the exact wording though.</p>
<p>Oh wow, and I thought my essay was really bad.</p>
<p>I applied to the Residential program, by the way.</p>
<p>I'm an Asian female and a junior.</p>
<p>so what time did they call u guys? do u think they will call other ppl also or is that it?</p>
<p>bonder, the lady called at about 8 pm.</p>
<p>I'm not sure, maybe they'll call other people tomorrow?</p>
<p>Could some NASA Sharp alums possibly add in their two cents about the program? I'd really like to hear some more personal opinions about the program before deciding to invest 8 weeks of my summer in it. :)</p>
<p>zpmqxonw, do you know which site you'll be sent to? I wasn't told.</p>
<p>you guys are so lucky, i wish i had an interview</p>
<p>I wasn't told either. I'm really just focusing on doing well in the interview. I am nervous that I'll get really excited and then I'd be crushed if I were rejected after the interview. I'm still extremely excited though. If any alumni have any tips to post on the interview that would be great!</p>
<p>I've been trying to call back for my interview, but it says they're closed. Does anybody know if they are open on the weekends?</p>
