Toyota Scholars - 2006 to 2008

<p>so, if you did not receive a package, does that mean you don't get it? does toyota still send out letters saying you didn't get in?</p>

<p>I believe they have sent such "rejection" letters in past years, so I expect them to continue them this year probably within a week or two...</p>

<p>Congrats to all who received the scholarship!</p>

<p>i called the Toyota Scholarship people last saturday but they didn't answer.</p>

<p>They left me a voice mail this morning saying that they are still in the process of giving the scholarships. They should be done by the end of April/early May. They told me that if I still don't hear from them by that time to give them a call again. </p>

<p>So, maybe all hope isn't lost to those who haven't received their packet?</p>

<p>Cris, </p>

<p>Did they say if you would be notified if you DON'T receive one? So, if we haven't heard yet, it could still come up until the end of April? Interesting.</p>

<p>Bumping this to see if anyone else has heard back from Toyota this week.</p>

<p>My Papers got mixed up...can anyone help me out...</p>

<p>The Photo + Ind. Release Packet go into the envelope to Kathy Mota correct?
And the Scholarship Reply Form goes in the envelope to the scholarship and recognition Programs correct?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>GujuGeek, if memory serves, you are correct. Congratulations to all!</p>

<p>i guess they tried delivering a package for me today but i wasnt home. so they're gonna come back tomorrow.</p>

<p>maybe its toyota? =] (crossing my fingers)</p>

<p>Is it just me, or did Toyota cancel their scholarship program for 2008? None of the links posted have worked.</p>

<p>The Toyota website was never a great place to get info. It's all about those applications going to the schools, etc. If I remember correctly - that application doesn't go until Christmas or even later. I do remember that it is March or April until you hear something and the event is in May (I think).</p>

<p>My school received the Toyota Scholarship form on the 9th of December.</p>

<p>The rubric looks so much like Coca-Cola... and that's discouraging.</p>

<p>I am really confused about toyota scholars. so the only way to apply is to request the application from my counselor? and there is only 1 nomination/applicant per school?? My teachers didn't say anything about it</p>

<p>@jenkster: another similarity to the Coca-Cola scholarship is that (according to the app/nom form) they also select semifinalists statistically based on the boxes you fill in</p>

<p>@google2008: yes, there is only 1 nominated person per school (unless your graduating class is 600+), and your counselor <em>should</em> have the form . . . my teachers didnt either, nor did the useless lady who is supposed to help us get into and pay for college . . . but you should go to your counselor and ask soon if you're going to, because the nomination forms have to be postmarked by like Jan. 4 or something. </p>

<p>my best friend got the nom from my school, so i hope she gets it along with you all. good luck guys!</p>

<p>Aww, UNEPgirl, that does not bode well! Maybe I can learn some packaging lessons from Coca-Cola though...</p>

<p>yeaa....that's the problem...we are kind of on break now....so not sure how to work around the jan 4</p>

<p>so is only teh nomination form due jan 4? adn the application is separate/later?</p>

<p>postmarked by 4th.</p>

<p>does matter lol, I doubt my counselor will go to school on the 4th to do this for me</p>

<p>but my question is: the nomination form, does it include essays? any efforts on my part?</p>

<p>no essays on nomination form. form is straightforward just like the coca-cola scholarship form.</p>

<p>any chance I can turn it in after break? :P</p>
