<p>ah this seems strangely reminiscent of the Stanford decisions.</p>
<p>hopefully very soon</p>
<p>I actually submitted my application at 4:58 on the day of the deadline.
I think a bunch of people doesn’t fill out the application and another bunch gets disqualified because there were so many details.</p>
<p>1001, was that 4:58 according to the online clock?? i know that a lot of people didn’t do it during the Bush administration (simply because they hated him) but i have a feeling a lot more people will do it this year.</p>
<p>I’m not a semifinalist, boo!</p>
<p>The letter says the list is on the website, but it’s not up yet. It’ll be at [Awards</a> - Presidential Scholars Program](<a href=“http://www.ed.gov/programs/psp/awards.html]Awards”>Awards: U.S. Presidential Scholars | U.S. Department of Education), though.</p>
<p>so you already got your letter?</p>
<p>also rejected. lets commiserate:) I thought i wrote a really good essay for the “what is significant to you” prompt.</p>
<p>mesquite_girl, whereabouts do you live? i didnt get anything in the mail today… 
it’s weird how the list isnt online yet</p>
<p>i live in Mesquite, a suburb of Dallas. TEXAS:) But yes, i really REALLY wanted to get this. DC would have been soooo lovely.</p>
<p>I got it in the mail just now and did make it 
too bad I can only get waitlisted at Yale</p>
<p>^ if you get Presidential Scholar you might stand a better chance to get pulled off the waitlist :O</p>
<p>got semi in the mail too</p>
<p>gotta say, rather antsy to find out… silly GA mail!</p>
<p>crap im on vacation. did they say when it will be up online?</p>
<p>I’m on the West Coast; nothing in my mailbox today. I did get a very nice letter from the Princeton Math Department though.</p>
<p>nothing today here in AZ…</p>
<p>bump 10 characters</p>
<p>I’m a semifinalist! I found out today. I live in Massachusetts.</p>
<p>The semifinalist list has been posted!</p>
<p>[Awards</a> - Presidential Scholars Program](<a href=“http://www.ed.gov/programs/psp/awards.html]Awards”>Awards: U.S. Presidential Scholars | U.S. Department of Education)</p>
<p>…and I didn’t make it. Guess I shouldn’t have written all those essays the day it was due haha…that and the fact that they probably didn’t like the fact that I wrote about video games :P</p>
<p>thanks for posting when they finally put the list up… i didn’t get it either 
oh well. rejection (after waitlisting) seems to be one of the top themes of the year.</p>
