Semi-Finalist List 2012!

<p>Hi! How come a few people posted on Twitter that they got an email about $5000 Coke Scholarship on 2/7??!! I thought Coke awards $10,000 scholarships O.O</p>

<p>i think that there may have been different types of scholarships?..</p>

<p><a href=“https://twitter.com/cokescholars[/url]”>https://twitter.com/cokescholars&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>That’s the twitter account I’ve been keeping an eye on…</p>

<p>Did people really post about a $5000 scholarship? I know there are other scholarship programs for Coke.</p>

<p>And oklahoma, I don’t think any finalist have received word. The twitter account I just linked to say not until next week. Plus I’m sure out of everyone on collegeconfidential that someone will be a finalist so I’m sure they’ll post when they receive word haha.</p>

<p>yea thanks, I was freaking out, cuz I thought I didn’t make it or something</p>

<p>Yeah it’s all good.</p>

<p>I <em>think</em> I remember seeing on their twitter account a picture about how it was the first weekend the scholarship reading committee group was meeting. So if they just meet on weekends hopefully that means that after this weekend they will be done and we’ll all hear results early in the week? Haha, though at this point it honestly just doesn’t matter, we’ll all know in 6 or so days anyway.</p>

<p>they have 2200 apps they don’t only meet on weekends lol. the first committee meeting was like last tuesday.</p>

<p>oh well as long as we find out next week … doesn’t matter</p>

<p>i like how i go to this thread like everyday for updates now lol… <em>desperation</em> THIS WEEK FOR SURE THOUGH, RIGHT?!</p>

<p>goodness i hope so! & know exactly how you feel haha i have been doing the same thing tralala</p>

<p>end of the week according to their twitter lol</p>

<p>No, I dont want to go to Emory University</p>

<p>In case anyone who is wondering what the above poster is talking about:</p>

<p>"We will be sending out notification letters and emails later this week. Our Program Review Committee had a difficult time selecting Finalists as there were a large number of very qualified applications.</p>

<p>In addition to the 250 scholarships we award, one Semifinalist will be named the Coca-Cola Emory Scholar - receiving a $20,000 scholarship to attend Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.</p>

<p>If you are interested in this additional opportunity, please complete the following survey: [2012</a> Emory University Interest Survey](<a href=“http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/cokeemorysurvey]2012”>2012 Emory University Interest Survey)</p>

<p>Again, we will send the semifinalist results via email and post-mail later this week.</p>

<p>Mark"</p>

<p>Same, not applying to Emory. I’m kind of paranoid that this means I didn’t become a finalist lol.</p>

<p>Well you have to fill out the form to be considered for it. So if you applied to Emory, fill it out. </p>

<p>That doesn’t mean you’re not a finalist.</p>

<p>I tried taking the survey, but I never applied to Emory so it closed out as soon as I answered that no, I hadn’t applied to Emory.</p>

<p>I’m sooooo nervous! keeping my hopes really low, though. that one line, “Our Program Review Committee had a difficult time selecting Finalists as there were a large number of very qualified applications” is scaring me!
best of luck to all semi-finalists!!! we’ll see this week!! ahhh =/</p>

<p>Oh yuck I didn’t think about that…</p>

<p>Did any semi-finalist not get that email?</p>

<p>My assumption (and my hope) is that they sent it to everyone. Since any semi-finalist can qualify for the Emory scholarship they’d open it to everyone?</p>

<p>Was this sent in an email? I’m a semi-finalist, and i definitely sent in my application, but I didn’t get this e-mail… I hope they received my application…</p>

<p>Ok i’m getting really nervous now… When was this email sent??? I never got it. what if they didn’t get my app? %!%@#!%#@!$!@</p>

<p>i got mine this afternoon…others got it beforehand, so i’m sure it’ll get sent to you. they’re probably late with it. they’ve been getting sent out throughout the week. check tomorrow?</p>

<p>did anyone else NOT receive the email???</p>
