<p>I just got an email today saying that I'm a finalist for this scholarship, previously known as the Commerce Bank scholarship. Does anyone know how many finalists there are/how difficult it is to win after achieving finalist status?</p>
<p>I am so mad I did not qualify as a finalist. What were your stats?</p>
<p>I’m a finalist too. Does anyone know how many finalists there are? I know they’ve awarded roughly 200 $1000 scholarships per year in past years, but that’s about it.</p>
<p>Stats:
Large NYC Public School - pop. 3500, graduating class ~850
School does not rank. Students have to take an entrance exam for admittance. The top <3% are admitted. (Weird system)</p>
<p>ACT M-33 R-34
SAT M-730 CR-700
(each taken once)</p>
<p>I’ve held various paid positions (mostly internships) over the past two years. I’ve done community service and participated in varsity athletics as well as club soccer for the past for years.</p>
