Toyota Scholars - 2006 to 2008

<p>I'm a finalist from Charlottesville, VA!</p>

<p>Join the facebook group if you're a finalist!</p>

<p>Rencorps, if you don't mind me asking, when did you get your letter and when was the letter dated from?</p>

<p>I haven't received any notification yet....maybe a bad sign?</p>

<p>^ Along the same lines as I was thinking. I figure that they would try to get those who received the scholarship notifications first for those students to plan around that date. I don't know though. I'll wait a few more days (previous posters have said they come out gradually) then I'll just sulk.</p>

<p>i pretty much given up on scholarships now. x_x depressing feeling after being rejected a lot of times.</p>

<p>(i also applied to this one and haven't gotten anything yet.)</p>

thats what sux the most about california</p>

<p>if you kept reading you would realize they do it by region, not state.
Look at last years winners, way way way more than 2 from CA.</p>

<p>Today, I spoke with a ETS rep for the Toyota Community Scholarship. She said that all semifinalists should be notified of their status (finalists and non-finalists) by the end of next week (end of April/early May). And you can't ask for your status on the phone...I tried.</p>

<p>ohh hmm I got it like a week ago? maybe last tuesday and it said it was next day shipping</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear!</p>

<p>Has anyone from CA heard back?</p>

<p>Alright, so should I have out the Ben and Jerry's now to prepare, or should I hold onto it until next week? Haha, jk. I'm still a little nervous, but after thinking about it, I've realized it's just $10,000-$20,000 :( Ah well.</p>

<p>BTW: Does anyone think that it would be a tad bit ridiculous to send a congrats letter in early May. Aren't the finalists getting together in early May? That would be pretty funny actually. You get a letter on the 6th asking you to catch a plane on the 7th.</p>

<p>are any finalists arriving late on Thursday? or going Friday? I have English Lit Thursday morning.</p>

<p>In the past, arrangements were made for students to take AP exams in Louisville, if needed.</p>

<p>hey everyone, so the facebook group is titled "Toyota Scholarship Finalists 2008". if you still can't find it, just request me, Virginia Nicholson (Tower Hill) and then check my groups.</p>

<p>I got a leter from ETS. It was dated April 9, 2008. I was not selected as a scholar. I am from Houston, Texas. good Luck to everyone and congrats to all!</p>

<p>same here! i have an ap lit exam that day, so im going to be late on Thursday...I am pretty excited!</p>

<p>Is this scholarship even open this year? Hard to find info/ application…</p>

<p>:d…</p>

<p>I’ve researched it and found nothing, assumed it’s over now.</p>
