<p>??????</p>
<p>Did anybody else apply for the Jackie Robinson scholarship?</p>
<p>When do I get paid?</p>
<p>Deadline is April 1, no?</p>
<p>Hey... I just checked the site. April 1 is the deadline for submission, and notification is mid-July.</p>
<p>You seem pretty confident about your chances, LOL.</p>
<p>does my stuff have to be postmarked by april 1st or recieved. I think postmarked or at least i hope so because my counselor wont be able to send to out until friday.</p>
<p>dude ; im screwed. i thought the deadline was the 15th & we dont have school until the 3rd. oh well.</p>
<p>It's Jun 15, not July. It's on the site.</p>
<p>How competitive is this scholarship?</p>
<p>i dont know but i'm in the process of applying. i despise the 50 billion essay questions at the end but im so tired of scholarships that i'll proabably just wirte something short and simple.</p>
<p>So does it have to be POSTMARKED or RECEIVED by the 1st??</p>
<p>vtoodler: I'm guessing it's pretty competitive, 'cause it was on Fastweb. Can you imagine how many students had info on it?! Geez. Ah well, I'll give it a shot. Finishing up the last of the questions. Man oh man. SO...MANY!</p>
<p>Someone from the Jackie Robinson Scholarship Foundation left a message on our answering machine for my son to call for an interview later this month. Does anyone know if this scholarship can be used anywhere in the nation--or are these regional scholarships?</p>
<p>I think that it can be used anywhere in the US.</p>
<p>as long as the college is regionally accreditied.</p>
<p>I was contacted to schedule an interview in UCLA. Has anyone done this before? I'd like some "pointers" about clothes (formal/semiformal)and things to say.</p>
<p>I have an interview on the 20th. I cant believe I am a semifinalist!!!!! Yay!!!!!</p>
<p>does anyone know the chances of going from semi-final to final and to getting any money?</p>
<p>Has anyone heard that they received the Jackie Robinson Scholarship? My semi-finalist son interviewed on the same day as 8 other semi-finalists. He was told that 5 of the 9 would be chosen as recipients. Good luck to all!</p>
<p>I believe that if you're interviewed, you're already a finalist (but not a recipient).
I haven't heard from them yet, but just for the record: there're about 9 interviewers that sit around a table with you, much like a business meeting.
I doubt if I got the scholarship, but the interview was wonderful and friendly (so no worries there) and I encourage others to apply next year.</p>
<p>My son is a recipient! He received a phone call this evening, and more details will follow in the mail. We are in the California region.</p>
<p>With 9 interviewers that must be an intense interview!! After those essay questions what types of questions are asked?</p>
