<p>anyone know yet?</p>
<p>still waiting</p>
<p>i had my phone interview last night so i guess it will take some time…anyone already got it?</p>
<p>The website says they’ll notify by April 25th, but the email I got says they’ll notify by April 28th. I’d say the email trumps the website, so the 28th.</p>
<p>@santa - how was the phone interview?</p>
<p>not bad, general questions…if you went for a regents interview then pretty much ditto…but very informal…dont be nervous…
wait, you havent even had your interview yet?</p>
<p>I believe one of my friends got his decision, but he didn’t get it from what I understand. It probably depends on your location, and they are probably notifying the first cuts first. Did everyone only have ten minute interviews? Is it true that only 30 out of 2100 will be chosen?</p>
<p>i think mine was like.. 20-25 minutes.</p>
<p>i heard 200 were chosen?</p>
<p>20 mins…did anyone get notified who actually made it?</p>
<p>By the grace of God I got it! It looks like they have begun to notify, it seems that in-state will receive $1500, while out of state will receive $2000.</p>
<p>Did they call or send you an email with the good news?</p>
<p>It was emailed, this is how it looked like:</p>

<p>Does anyone have experience with award, what are some of the other benefits?</p>
<p>nothing yet for me :(</p>
<p>i got mine :)</p>
<p>i don’t know, my interview was def. bad though, so i think maybe they are just giving out a lot of the scholarships, if they are unselective enough to have picked me lol</p>
<p>It seems like they had the essays we wrote with them…</p>
<p>nothing here yet, and I didn’t expect to (if only 200 total were awarded). seems like winners are being notified first? (haha with my sample size of 4)</p>
<p>I got an email notifying me of my status.</p>
<p>I didn’t get an e-mail.</p>
<p>lol my interview is May 10th…so I’m guessing I won’t know until after</p>
<p>Still no email…soooo nervoussss!!!
ROFL @ Good Game…but seriously I thought they will be done with all interviews by May 1</p>
