Scholastic Art and Writing Awards 2014-2015

@mochafrozen‌ I heard from some people who applied last year that WA get results later than everyone else, sadly. They will email or mail you the regional results!

Anyone from the Philadelphia region who has been notified? The website says all winners will get letters, that’s all. Apparently they do not use computers in Philadelphia. :-/

@honestmom did you check the sidebar? All results were supposed to be results yesterday. Mailing happens in March…

@tryhard007‌ Thanks for the heads-up haha. Do you know about what time Washington gets notified? :smile:

Do guys know when the special category category key winners are announced/when they were announced last year?

Thanks!

Good luck everyone.

I was able to eek out a Gold key for critical essay in NYC regionals.

The following pertains to the upcoming Gold Medal decisions.

“National Judging & Notification
All Gold Key work is currently being reviewed on the national level by creative professionals. National Medalists will be announced via our Online Notification System on Monday, March 16. Please have your students visit www.artandwriting.org and login (using the same username and password from registration) to see if they earned a National Medal.”

Was notified! (Philly Arts Region) 3 gold keys for my oil paintings and portrait. Really surprised by what won and what didn’t. :slight_smile:

are we required to go to the regional ceremony to get our awards? I really want to go but I’m not too sure I can make it this year, will they still send me my keys/certificates or whatever in the mail?

@sillyface‌ You do not have to attend the regional ceremony; they will send you your certificates by mail.

Did you receive three separate letters or one letter for all your art results?

3 separate letters, but in one envelope

@OverInfinity When did you receive your letter?

@honestmom‌ Yesterday :slight_smile:

This wait is literally killing me! Has anyone in WA State region been notified yet?!?

Was just notified of four more honorable mentions so the wait for some of you must not be over yet! Don’t give up on hope :slight_smile:

@OverInfinity‌ Are you from WA state then?

Nah, PA :slight_smile:

Won a Silver Key for my essay after I found out about the entire Scholastic competition just 3 days before. It was one work, and I am quite surprised because it wasn’t my best. Please don’t get angry. lol

Do you all know when we get the letter?

D got a letter Saturday with an Honorable Mention for Art (Philly region.) She is very happy! Over 1350 pieces were submitted so getting any award in this region is fantastic. She submitted three works and the one she got the HM for was not her strongest, so we are hoping maybe there is another letter in the mail with a Key Award.

No news from WA state… The tension of waiting is compounded by the lack of information. :frowning:
