oh and off another thread:
"Oh, and judging by last years thread, the finalists will be notified in late July/early August by phone, and winners will be notified in late September/early October. "

Semifinalist! (: I probably should have mentioned this earlier.
We'll find out if we made it in the fall.
I really didn't think this was going to happen, honestly LOL. I literally started and finished my app four hours before the actual deadline in the library because my own computer was being difficult.
What did you guys write your essays on? (:
Also...Is "Nordstrom Scholarship semifinalist" an appropriate award to put on a college application, or do colleges sneer at that sort of thing?

Semi-Finalist as well!!
Does anyone know what the next steps are, is it just the recommendation and the transcript?
Also, how many finalists are picked from the semi-finalists?

i've been wondering the same thing - about how finalists are selected. i guess no one knows. from past threads, it seems like mid-july for finalist notifications, by phone

I'm not sure on the numbers, but I believe that all we have to do for now is make sure our recommenders submit the transcript and recommendation by June 1st. After that, some time in mid-July to August, Finalists are notified by phone and asked to schedule an interview. Final decisions are made and winners are announced some time in Fall 2012.
Hope this helps and good luck to everyone!
