Is this the famed “waiting place” from Dr. Suess’ “Oh the places you’ll go?” Waiting for SF cutoffs, EA notification, NMF confirmation, RD notification, on and on.
Worst of all NMSC has the nerve to schedule all of this during debate district and nationals qualifier time, so DD is too busy writing and researching to worry with me !
We are still waiting in KY…I know others in KY have heard. Two schools in our city have announced it to the public already! Will be calling by the end of the school day!
My daughter finally received her NMF certificate from a Georgia school yesterday, and they said it had just arrived in the mail that day. Can you believe how small and cheap the actual certificates are? The honor and scholarship benefits are huge, but the certificate itself is laughable.
No! @Community2605! Don’t listen to @Barfly, or the rest of us will NEVER get letters! Let him smoke! The smell will leave your house within a few years, I promise. Feed him, love him, give him encouraging words. He has more work left to do.
Whoever is the last one standing can do what needs to be done here in Oh the Places You Will Wait.
We are still waiting in KY as well. I am positive DS GC will tell him the instant she gets it. They are very efficient and conscientious. I sent her an email on Monday letting her know the letter should be there any day. Sigh.
@SCNomad public school OTP in metro Atlanta. They called her in at the end of the school day and have not made official announcements yet, but rather went ahead and gave her the certificate. Your school probably received the certificate in the mail late yesterday and will hand it out today.
Strange thing happened last night. My principal just sent me the weirdest email. Apparently under the cloak of darkness a carrier pigeon arrived. He left behind a beautiful certificate, a pile of bat poop, and a note that seems to read Bat Pigeon was here. Evidence suggests he was heading north next.
We’re still waiting, too, in Western PA. I broke down and emailed the GC yesterday but she said the Principal will get it and he was home sick. How is that allowed? :))
Ok People Still Waiting ~ TODAY is your day! I just know it! Now, click your heels together three times, have a Girl Scout Cookie, and repeat after me, “There’s no place like college. There’s no place like college!” Thinking of all of you today- @GoAskDad and @PAMom21 let us know, OK??!!
Just got the email from the GC, DD and all of the other SFs at her school are FINALISTS!!! Woohoo, so happy! FYI, GC says it arrived in yesterday’s mail. Will be watching for the rest of you waiting to post your news too!
My DD in North Texas has yet to hear from the school or get the letter but Alabama sent her an e-mail yesterday asking he to confirm her Finalist status.
