Top Scholars 2019

Hi everybody. In looking at last year’s posts the initialTop Scholars invitations were received via FedEx on Thursday Feb 18, so maybe they’ll be sent this week?

Could people who receive them please post so we know when it’s started? Thanks!

I think they’ll be sent this week as well. I’ll make sure to comment/post if I do manage to get anything!

Fingers crossed for everyone anxiously waiting - I will certainly post if my son hears anything.

Fingers crossed here as well. I’ll be sure to shout it from the rooftops if we hear anything. LOL

I’m assuming you meant Jan 18th? We are anxiously awaiting here as well, OOS hoping for Top Scholars.

@Msteneman LOL! Yes, Jan 18th. Good thing my daughter is the applicant and not me!

@LoyolaMD91 love the rooftops comment!! It’s seems like a very unlikely dream given the odds.

Good luck to all! It certainly is competitive, but know that even being in the running guarantees some $ and in state tuition. My older son in Honors College now and loves it!

Coastal S.C. here, just received my top scholars invite via fedex overnight! 50 selected

Congrats @edomexchs That’s awesome! Good luck!?

Congratulations @edomexchs!! Great job - so exciting!!

Congratulations @edomexchs !!! So exciting!

Congrats @edomexchs! Fingers crossed here in Maryland!

Congrats! Hope this means OOS sent out also, we are in MD as well @LoyolaMD91. I am a Loyola U grad

@msteneman @loyolaMD91 I have seen on the message boards that a new item appears in the forms section of your portal around the same time the invites are sent out - you can always check those. Keep in mind, I’m not speaking from personal experience and they could have changed the timing, but you might get your good news early that way.

Is anything different showing up in the portal @edomexchs ? Thanks.

@wendyetz Ha! I must have been typing my message the same time you were. :slight_smile:

LOL of course, because we’re all anxiously awaiting that decision :slight_smile: Good luck to you!

I’ll have to wait until I’m home to check my portal, however USC did email me about an hour after the invite was delivered to my house saying to check the mail tonight “for something special fromm usc admissions”

Thank @edomexchs. No such email here, so he must not have made it. Good luck to you!

Thanks @edomexchs Knew it was a long shot - congrats and good luck!
