Walmart Scolarship

<p>On website says: </p>

<p>The 2006 scholarship winners will be notified by May 1, 2006. Winners lists will be posted on this site in May.</p>

<p>So they should notify us within days.</p>

<p>Who is "us." Other people, not you!</p>

<p>What? I don't comprehend your rude tone. They should notify the winners by May 1st is what I meant.</p>

<p>Yeah, that wasn't necessary UltimateFrisbee. I understood what he meant, he meant the general public, to those few applicants that applied for the scholarship.</p>

<p>I should've applied for the Wal Mart scholarship...how was the application formatted and what were some of the things that they required?</p>

<p>The whole application was online. No essay was required.</p>

<p>I applied. I hope I get it.</p>

<p>Does anyone know how competitive the scholarship is? And how many awards are given out... Is it like the KFC one...(which I didnt get...)</p>

<p>I didn't get the KFC scholarship either. But each walmart gives out 2 $1000 scholarships.</p>

<p>No, according to collegeboard's scholarship service the statistics are: </p>

<p>Number of awards granted:</p>

<pre><code>* 4,617
</code></pre>

<p>Number of applicants:</p>

<pre><code>* 42,564
</code></pre>

<p>The Sam Walton Community Scholarship is a $1000 scholarship that is given to two students from each walmart.</p>

<p>Those numbers that you posted should add up to two winners per walmart and sam's club.</p>

<p>did you guys receive emails or any type of notification?</p>

<p>Tomorrow is the day! I think I applied for it...hopefully! I don't remember, because I've been applying to colleges and scholarships like crazy. </p>

<p>Well, best of luck to all of you! I hope a select few of your applications were "tha bomb!"</p>

<p>O yeah, notify us if any of you are "winners!"</p>

<p>yea, I hope all of us get it.</p>

<p>Was the notification date May 1st for last year too? Cause I was checking out the past walmart winners and they didn't know till June.</p>

<p>Ooo, I couldn't have applied for that because my parents are not full-time employees at any Wal-Mart facility! -_- </p>

<p>I knew it was too good to be true. :(</p>

<p>They don't have to be employees.</p>
