<p>OMG!! I just found out I have won the KVPY Fellowship!!!! Thats undoubtedly the biggest achievement of my life! But my docs have already been couriered. What do I do now?
Also my SAT scores, I hadn't received the official report when I sent my app. They'll come on 21st or something. So I just put my SAT scores in school transcript with a long disclaimer by the school insisting that the school takes no responsibility of the SAT scores and the student himself will mail the SAT report separately to SSP when he gets it....</p>
<p>mine were slightly above the limit,</p>
<p>Congrats, gary7! :)</p>
<p>For the SAT I just printed out the online one and sent it in. </p>
<p>Does anyone know when we get confirmation emails? My app should have come in today.</p>
<p>Thanks coin! I forgot to mention that my SAT scores have been sent to UC Berkeley(And this is mentioned in the school transcript). Does that help matters a bit? Resending docs will not be easy, coz
1. It takes about INR 1000 or $20 to send the courier
2. It takes about 4 days for the courier to reach the destination.</p>
<p>I have not included a printout of the online notification coz it was written 'a printout of this report won't be accepted by colleges'. Should I contact the SSP people now? Or wait for my app to reach them or do what?
P.S. Any girls here applying for SSP?</p>
<p>I'm a girlll. Sorry when I read your screen name, I immediately associated it with the city Gary, aka "the armpit." So my brain went - guy. </p>
<p>Well, please forgive my somewhat insulting comment.</p>
<p>well I sent mine, it should be there already.
hopefully I get in, and I hope to meet some of you if I do
and also, did someone say that decisions would be sent in two weeks or something? or 4 weeks?</p>
<p>I am also a girl. :]</p>
<p>I think somebody said two weeks? I checked last year's thread, though, and I think the first person who posted with an acceptance posted on like March 10-20, though. So not that long to wait. Hopefully I'll have news by spring break.</p>
<p>I too am a girl! (there seem to be quite a few of us!)</p>
<p>A family friend who used to be on the SSP reviewing committee said two weeks (although that could have been a minimum), and the confirmation email from Mr. Bowdon said "several weeks." How agonizingly vague!</p>
<p>velleity? I didn't understand where I was supposed to take insult so I don't think you need to apologize hehe. My real name though is Gaurav(means pride and honour in hindi). And I have a feeling I'm the only international applicant on CC. Or is someone else lurking out here?
And I guess I'll be receiving first round results right in the middle of my XIth annual examinations lol coz In India we follow the April-March academic year.
I was also wondering when do RSI results come out? Coz those selected in RSI probably won't attend SSP even on selection I guess. I wanted to apply to RSI but they had no funding from India this year X-(
Also suppose my app reaches on 21st is there any chance of me being included in the first round? It'll be really frustrating if a postal delay goofed up round 1 for me lol.</p>
<p>how long did it take for you to receive a confirm. email? I haven't received any</p>
<p>I think I sent mine out the same day as you and I haven't received anything either, tomjonesistheman. Still makes me kind of nervous, though. And I believe Time's Arrow sent hers out quite a while ago, but yeah, I second your question about how long the email took :)</p>

How much longer should it take? <em>bites nails</em></p>
<p>if i send mine out by next monday or tuesday, do you think they'll still make a decision by the early deadline?</p>
<p>gary7:
I emailed Bowden about the same thing--he said that they accept the online printout.</p>
<p>Thanks ReArranger! I guess that means I won't need to send the report separately. But thing is school has mentioned I will so I'll have tell Mr. Bowden or whoever. Will do so once I receive confirmation of receipt of my application.
Also below what annual income(+2 other dependent siblings) can I expect FULL financial aid(including the 500 dollar travel allowance)?
I cannot attend the program without financial aid :( As it is the transportation costs are beastly!</p>
<p>Hey, can someone answer about my question about essay 4b? did you write about one competition, or many? I have many, but maybe I should go in depth in just one?</p>
<p>I mentioned only 1 biggest achievement and about a dozen other achievements in the other question about your competitions and all.</p>
<p>sorry, i meant queston 4d, not 4b</p>
