<p>congrats hewnew!</p>

<p>Well it does look like area chapters tend to send out the notification. I’m in the DFW area, and I applied for a different scholarship (the regular one) so I will wait and see. Do they send out rejection emails???</p>

<p>Hewnew, I got the same email today!</p>

Thank you so kindly</p>

<p>Congrats funtertaining15. Where are you from?</p>

<p>does anyone know when the scholarship was officially due? cuz online it said January 28, but I applied via paper app, and the paper app I had said March 11 (I’m staring at the copy I made of it right now)…so I’m getting all worried that I didn’t even make the deadline when that’s not even my fault :/</p>

<p>@harvard_hopeful: well, judging from your location, i assume you are from ca. did you do the app for california chapter? socal chapter? norcal chapter because the one at the main ronald mcdonald website has it in january, but i know the one in socal was due much later in march.</p>

<p>I live in Pearland.</p>

<p>For everyone who doesn’t know - Pearland is near Houston.
@funtertaining15 - I was actually born in Pearland :slight_smile: That’s cool!</p>

<p>Okay, so I emailed the website administrators for the RMHC online application thing and they sent me an email saying notifications have NOT been sent out. So I figure that they don’t control all of the notifications? And / Or like I said previously, certain chapters send out at certain times… </p>

<p>Congrats to winners so far!</p>

<p>I actually moved to Pearland about 2 years ago; I was born in Nassau Bay^^</p>

<p>Well I only lived there from birth to about 3 and a half years old, so I don’t remember a whole lot. :slight_smile: My world was pretty small then.</p>

<p>Funtertaining15 and Hewnew, I received a letter in the mail today saying I had received it but I did not get an email, while my twin sister received an email saying that she had received it, but did not receive a letter. Weird? Hopefully not a mistake. We live a little outside of Houston as well. I mean, if one of us got picked I don’t know why we both wouldn’t. We both received acceptance into UTs engineering school, are in the top 3% of the class, and have the same extracurriculars… sooo? Lol hopefully its not a mistake.</p>

<p>I received the letter today in the mail and as posted earlier,the email 2 days ago.I live in Missouri City.</p>

<p>No Letter or Email yet… :(</p>

<p>I applied for the asian one but I got a letter saying I wasn’t selected for the HACER scholarship. Should I be worried? Does that mean I didn’t win the asian one as well?</p>

<p>I dunno lizcho. :?
I thought you could only apply to one…
Was this one also managed by that company that was overwhelmed by the Reagan Scholarship?
Can’t remember… DD Applied to 60 scholarships
Sorry but good luck! we still haven’t heard anything
Take Care,

<p>GOT the Letter today :slight_smile:
My DD got this one!
Good Luck to the Rest!
Take Care,
