<p>as there is no ut dallas board... did anyone here apply for the mcdermott scholarship at utd, and if so did you receive anything (yay or nay) on the 15th?</p>
<p>I go to UTD and from what I know, the McDermott scholarship is extremely difficult to attain. There are only I think twelve of them per year, and they are all very capable students. Two of them went to my high school and they both graduated top 10 rank in the class (out of ~1400) and had 2200+ SAT scores. It’s what UTD uses to pull brilliant students from Ivies.</p>
<p>thanks alex i know about the scholarship…son was a semifinalist with a date of jan 15 for notification of finalist.status.we didnt hear so dont know if that means he’s not a finalist or if the notifications were not sent</p>
