<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Who this year has applied for the '12 Woodrow Wilson Research Fellow Program grant?</p>
<p>What were your essays like?</p>
<p>Mine was basically like:</p>
<p>Cheese introduction.
Sophomore Research (neurobiology)
Junior Research (biochemistry)
This years project (information theory)
Description of cool project that builds on Sophomore year and a bit of Senior year.
Conclusion: Pick Me</p>
<p>Fun stuff.</p>
<p>i didn't, but good luck =]</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>It seemed like a waste not to apply for such a great opportunity.</p>
<p>i plan to. there doesn't seem to be a set deadline on it, is there? or, did it have to go in along with my application?</p>
<p>Searching got 2 different answers: one (from AdDan) was that the deadline is the RD deadline: Jan 1.</p>
<p>The other was that it's part of your application, and as such must be in with that deadline.</p>
<p>I don't know, but I'm leaning towards the first, because it came from the man.</p>
<p>Are you going to use the online application, or mail it in? I used the online deal, but I'm kinda regretting that, since using a printed copy would allow me to use italics, etc.</p>
<p>Whatever.</p>
<p>The Wilson Fellowship deadline is January 1st for all applicants, including Early Decision applicants. We strongly urge students to complete the fellowship application through our online system.</p>
<p>Decision about Wilson are released when RD decisions are released.</p>
<p>Thanks for clearing that up!</p>
<p>definitely online. my handwriting is near illegible.</p>
<p>I know someone who applied ED to JHU last year and got denied the scholarship. She was an Intel Finalist and had been researching for 4 years. So yeah...</p>
<p>Wait, Intel finalist as in she went to Intel ISEF and got rejected? Or did are you talking about the STS thing?</p>
<p>That's intense... Way to crash our party :-P</p>
