UCLA Alumni Scholarship

<p>I was interviewed about two weeks ago, and I had four questions with two minutes to answer each one. I didn't even use the two minutes to answer each question ><em>< I just stated something, took a breath, stated another, and probably finished each of my answer in a minute or about ten seconds over a minute. LOL....I was thinking to myself "great use of time......></em><". </p>

<p>I didn't smile at all during the questions....I was so darn serious the whole time and finally eased up during the "do you have any questions for the UCLA Alumni" part. </p>

<p>Bad part : I spent the afternoon of that day cringing over how I answered my questions (stoic, serious me). </p>

<p>Good part : I got the scholarship, and I will be interviewing a second time for the state competition final.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK to everyone who is waiting to hear from them or who are going to interview again a second time!!!!!!</p>

<p>I have the second round of interviews on Saturday, but I was wondering if anything would be going on the weekend of 4/21? Like the day students actually go to the campus. Thanks for any help!</p>

<p>hmm..seems like the districts do it differently. i didn't get any "fun" (if you were an animal,....) questions and i had to dress up.</p>

<p>yay! going onto 2nd round of interviews for "Area II" this Sat. @ UCLA.</p>

<p>yeah...are there any past alumni scholars who can share some advice?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I made it to state finals, but I didn't receive the email attachment with the resume. Can anybody help me out? I'm freaking out, because it's due on the 20th.</p>

<p>Is anybody/did anybody go to the open house? I have kind of a long commute, so is it something worth missing half-a-school day over?</p>

<p>HermioneTrapper: As far as the open house goes... The open house itself isn't too great. But... If you haven't seen/visited the campus, I highly recommend doing so. There's no way you should decide where to go without visiting first, and half a school day is nothing really. Rather, you should be stoked to miss some school :) a little vacation is always nice.</p>

<p>MattHoward55: The scholarship is $4000 paid in $1000 dollar annual installments over 4 years (obviously). It is contingent upon:</p>

<p>a) You actually going to UCLA lol.
b) Keeping good grades > 2.0
c) 30 hourse community service performed each year (120 total for those mathematically uninclined people out there - jk)</p>
