@Xenabean - thank you. I will channel you as I enter the school building tonight. However, those folks know me well enough to run the other way when they see me coming, which they may do… Except the many boxes of Girl Scout cookies I will carry with me may serve as a momentary distraction, allowing me to pounce before they can run away!
Good luck GAD! We are all rooting for you.
@Barfly - thank you for the clarification
Seattle pigeon was released from treatment yesterday but was encouraged to go back to Ohio to get some additional rest. That Maul of American experience really shook him. However at this very moment “Super Pigeon” is flying fast hoping to make it all the way to Seattlle by Valentines day. He is one of the elite special forces pigeons who is sent in to relieve sick or injured carrier pigeons.
Finalist! My son heard from his school’s principal.
No letter yet in GA though:(.
Congrats to all who made it and who did not. Huge honor in both cases!
Be proud!
@pipsicle All NMSC scholarships (whether the $2500, corporate-sponsored, or college-sponsored) are paid directly to the college.
Nothing yet for me in AL. Congratulations to everyone who got letters today!
So nothing in 80304 CO, but my son just got a call from U of AZ checking in to see if he had any questions, etc. He has been accepted there, so I am wondering if the university knows already.
Emailed GC yesterday, he said “He will certainly be in, but we have not heard yet.” Waiting. . .waiting. . . still waiting in Missouri. Best Wishes to those who found out!
Has anyone in VA in the public school system heard anything yet? I am threatening to call the school tomorrow. Our school had 3 nmsf and 2 out of the 3 (one of those is our DS) will be out of town for a school trip, and Monday is a holiday…really hoping the GC would not wait until next Tuesday to notify them if they get the info before then!
Are the schools “allowed” to release the information, or are they told to wait until a later date? Any homeschoolers on here care to tell us what your letter says? My son was going to ask the principal today but doesn’t want to put him on the spot if he’s not supposed to release the info yet.
There are multiple schools that have released the info in official press releases, so I’m doubting there is any gag order. Here is a typical one. Google just in the past 24 hours or a week to find more.
Still nothing in NY…
@GoAskDad, yes DS had a semester C in AP Chem, but the year grade was listed as a B-. He had a 2210 SAT and. A 4.18 GPA. I really did think until today that we probably were sent a rejection and never received it. I just KNOW you will hear tomorrow! Let us now as soon as you hear, you too @PAMom21! Fingers crossed for everyone waiting to hear! I really hope everyone gets the good news before the weekend! Can we make another thread for where they are attending college? I am going to miss you guys!
Congratulations to all NMFs and best wishes to those still waiting.We are blessed that DS received his letter today. DS considered many universities before realizing UA is his best option. Now he is scrambling to find quality roommates in the honors’dorm. I thought this thread may be a good avenue to find compatible roommate(s) who are already slated to live in the honors’ dorm. Please let me know.
UA is what university?
Oh good heavens it simply can’t be too late to find quality roommates!
Got notification from private school today in Arkansas that son’s letter and certificate arrived at school. Exciting!
UA is Alabama. (Sorry)
Hey, so are we still waiting to hear @GoAskDad’s news?
