Not a finalist! A little bummed, but I already have a full ride somewhere else and am a finalist for another full ride…looking at law school so my undergrad doesn’t really matter either!
Congrats to anyone who is a finalist!
Some of my stats (might be interesting I guess):
34 ACT, 3rd in my class, FBLA State President (also another state position, leadership on local level extensively), class president/student gov involvement, key club, varsity athlete, business owner of LLC, local leadership program student mentor, yearbook, sport manager
Haha, did she get a full tuition scholarship there? I thought I remembered seeing you in that thread mentioning Singer or one of those major scholarships. I just found out yesterday I got a full ride to Creighton & then today found out I’m a finalist at IU Bloomington for a full ride, so I responded no to my offer of admission for Miami. I haven’t been on their campus but it’s pretty like W&L’s! And amazing weather as well, can’t beat Florida.
Hi! Congratulations! My daughter received a Johnson invite also- She is very excited. I will not be traveling with her- we live in Florida. Are you going to attend?
Yes I would like to go with her. She just registered so we’ll see what the travel arrangements are.
I visited the law school years ago but I want to see the campus from the undergraduate side. If she gets the scholarship W&L will shoot to the top of the list!
One of my other girls got in Miami so we will also be making a trip to Florida!
Does anyone have an idea of when the RD decisions are historically released? The website says April 1, but do you think we will hear on this day or possibly before?
Thank you. My daughter went in open minded, but wasn’t sure what to expect. After her Johnson weekend, she is absolutely in love with the school and the town. Everyone she met was nice and welcoming; students, deans, professors, bus drivers. She really enjoyed the class she attended and the enthusiasm for learning among the students. I don’t think it would be a real option for her without the scholarship, but we have our fingers crossed, and she made friends that she will keep regardless.
That is great that both of your daughters liked W&L. My son is a Johnson scholar and he has had many amazing opportunities so far at W&L. The Johnson scholarship is really incredible. Good luck to both of them.
ACT 36, all honors/APs in high school with high As, years of weekly service, good ECs, leadership & initiatives in service. Not sure how much they weigh those stats, but no doubt it was a very impressive group of kids there. All so deserving.
Good evening! Would any of your students be willing to give an interview to the W&L school newspaper about their Johnson weekend experience? My daughter, a first year, is writing an article. Please message me through CC. We can arrange for the interview to be entirely anonymous.
