W&L Johnson Scholarship Class of 2021 Official Discussion Thread

Where did he find out he is qualified for the Richmonds Scholar? Thanks for your input.

@Radeckiva, Richmond sent out emails to all the Semifinalists in December and through January 12.

How do you guys know results are tomorrow at 8pm??? Is it official???

i just entered the website, OMG so nervouss

It’s the banner on the Admissions page of the website.

I can hardly wait!

The notification banner is on the status page at this time. The dates are March 5-7 which is the same weekend as Morehead-Cain finalist weekend. I wonder why they would pick the same weekend? Anyone in the same situation?

@stanford86 Yes! Finalist for both. Would love to know if this is the norm. Any advice?

Has anyone been contacted by the travel agent yet?

Johnson weekend just concluded; I think we hear back next Friday, the 17th.

how were everyone’s experiences at the weekend?/

@froshkiddo My daughter LOVED it! She had a wonderful experience and felt she clicked with the faculty members at her panel interview. She felt like the school was extremely welcoming and the students very engaged.

@froshkiddo My son loved it! He was impressed with the applicants, enjoyed meeting the faculty, and loved the campus. He felt very welcomed.

my daughter thought she might be hearing today - how sure are you about the 17th date?

@dumbledad2017 My son thought they would find out tomorrow. I called the admissions office to ask when the notifications were going to be released and they said they are working on it and it was expected “in 2 weeks”. The 17th seems to be more accurate.

Based on last year’s Johnson thread, it seems the 17th is the best bet. My daughter said the kids thought that too. It seems that last year they got an email similar to the one they got this year letting them know they were finalists? A hint to check their portal–last year posters indicated there was change in their Financial Aid status.

Did anyone write a thank you note for interviewer?

Did any of you who attended Johnson weekend apply Early Decision?

Has anyone seen anything on their financial aid portal

@sc00per88 i believe nothing has changed on my financial aid portal. It just shows the required documents as received.
