Potential Cornelius Vanderbilt Scholars

@musicgeek97. Thanks, that’s what I figured but it would be such a relief to have an answer! Fingers crossed for CV.

Looks like the notification date is coming up fast. Good luck to everyone else who’s hoping for this!

I thought this last week of waiting would last forever, but these past two days have absolutely flown by. Here’s to hoping tomorrow does too and that the notification will be Thursday instead of Friday.

I did too! Especially since some scholarship letters from a different college I’m applying to are coming out this week. I’m really shocked at how calm I’ve been. But I really hope they come out Thursday.

I’m really nervous! I know it’s a longshot to receive one of the scholarships, but I am really hopeful!

I feel as if I am way more hopeful than I need to be with how low the chances really are. I hope I’m not setting myself up to be extremely disappointed if I don’t get it.

I cant remember, it has been so long since son applied. Is this to find out if they GOT the award, or just the finals, and then still need a final interview?

@ZBD5421‌ There is not an interview process. The email states whether or not you received the award.

Does anyone know what time approximately during the day we will get the email?

@runnergirl09 In previous years, people have received their e-mails anywhere from 1 PM - 9 PM Central Time. They are sent by a computer system, so they go out in batches.

@Benzy50 I see - thanks for clarifying that!!

It’s tomorrow (hopefully)! I’m excited and scared and nervous and anxious.

Ugh tomorrow I’m off b/c of this damn weather…now I’m going to wallow in anxiety obsessively until decisions are out XD

Same. I was hoping to be in school where I could attempt to be distracted, but it looks like school is going to be cancelled and I’ll have to sit around staring at my phone all day.

If today is the day, good luck to everyone!

Good luck everybody! Best wishes to all of you!

Also, if anyone receives their email, please post it here ASAP so we can know if today really is the day!

Good luck to y’all as well! I really hope it is today but I expect we won’t hear anything til after lunch if it is.

Are we pretty sure that non-recipients will receive an email informing them as well?

I am pretty sure that both recipients and non recipients will be notified. Non-recipients of Ingram were notified.

Yes, everyone will receive an e-mail at some point or another.
