Well, the deadline for the scholarship isn't until March 15th, so there is still some time before they will be making any decisions. By looking on SPA, I found out that all semifinalists will be notified of the results in April.

hey guys, i got this last year...just to let you know, they just send you the one email about semi and then a letter with what level you get...i almost forgot about it b/c communication is so infrequent. it's a nice award, though--good luck!

No I don't think you have to send anything by mail...I think everything is done online.

No. I just submitted mine and it said nothing would be required to be sent until you were chosen as a semifinalist.
Oh, and it looks like the deadline was extended to March 17th.

I am not completely positive about that. But, on SPA it now says Postmark Deadline: March 17, 2008. So, I guess it is the 17th.

Yeah, can anyone confirm that? The SPA website does say 3/17, but the Lowes website still says 3/15. Oh great. I guess we can just send it and if they don't accept it, then we'll know.

I submitted it a couple of minutes ago, in case the deadline is really today and not the 17th. That IS weird that SPA would extend the deadline without any confirmation from Lowes themselves.
