@ijmom - I am not sure if the Cal. Alum Assn. can access the data whether one submitted the SIR. I would think that may be a violation of the privacy policy, as the Alum association is an independent organization. As far as I know they only have access to the application, as I remember agreeing to something along those lines during submit of the application.
Maybe somemom will jump in and clarify this for us.

@Ijmom

It's usually not a good idea to count on getting one of the most competitive scholarships the university offers.

I don't think that's right. I'm in the North Bay and I've already heard back.

I've sent in an email..

I've sent the Alumni Scholarship address an email requesting the status of my interview on April 23rd. I'll let you know when they give me some information. They must be freaking out as much as we are not having this done yet. As far as I know, this is the first year this has happened.

They replied and said if you had a phone interview the last couple of weeks of April, you'll hear back toward the end of May.

I'm sorry to say, but this is seriously ridiculous. In the san jose (norcal) area we were told that they were late in doing interviews, sent us the wrong date for the interviews (later corrected), and told us we would recieve a follow up email on May 3rd. Still haven't gotten that email...
