Clark Scholars 2010!

<p>In topology? Maybe you got nirvanatear’s mentor from last year, this guy: [Texas</a> Tech University: Mathematics & Statistics – Professors](<a href=“http://www.math.ttu.edu/people/proffull.shtml#LIW]Texas”>http://www.math.ttu.edu/people/proffull.shtml#LIW)</p>

<p>But then again, maybe not! Who knows?</p>

<p>Well, I guess decisions are coming out. I’m looking forward to the results.</p>

<p>tbh archimedes, knowing what proletariat has said that even an actual letter is unusual i doubt that you got a phone call.</p>

<p>Congratulations archimedes1!</p>

<p>Oh well, I should start searching for alternatives. My application wasn’t that strong.</p>

<p>@ HitMan: Clark Scholars always call those accepted. After all, there are only 12 of them.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure I got rejected as well. I guess I’m going to MathCamp.</p>

<p>Hmmm I guess I better start looking elsewhere</p>

<p>^archimedes</p>

<p>congrats, what stats do you have and have you done math research before?</p>

<p>Yes, Clark Scholars calls and emails the applicants. Actually, I didn’t receive a call last year, but a few people (nirvanatear, for example) did. I just got an email.</p>

<p>Anyway, I don’t know if they’re doing admissions all at once this year. The entire process has seemed pretty fragmented…keep on the lookout, guys! And check your spam!</p>

<p>But do they send out rejection emails/calls?</p>

<p>I feel so stupid that I turned down another summer program just to wait for Clarks.</p>

<p>Did they send emails individually last year or was it a general email to the whole group?</p>

<p>I got a rejection by snail mail last year and no email.</p>

<p>Darn, I think my chances are shot. I don’t think they have ever taken two people for mathematics have they?</p>

<p>So noone else have gotten a call so far? I find that hard to believe…</p>

<p>Can anybody confirm that decisions have been made?</p>

<p>looking at the results two years ago, it appears that one or two people got a call ahead of time before the emails and acceptances went out</p>

<p>I got the call last year and the email in very close succession. I had missed answering the phone but when I checked my email the night of the 18th - there it was!</p>

<p>If you get in, don’t miss the opportunity. I think it was very influential with my college admissions. Actually, what matters is how much you take advantage of the program and what you actually DO that counts.</p>

<p>Just for an update, I was in the program last year and got into Rice-Baylor MSP with substantial merit aid and research offer from Rice.</p>

<p>Correction - I meant that I got the phone call/email about SEMIFINALIST notification. After that I just expressed interest in the program but in my particular case it took an unusually long time for them to inform me that i got in. In fact, I had to actually contact them and ask what was up. If you look at last year’s thread you can see my confusion, lol.</p>

<p>I never got any calls, just emails. However, several of the others, like Torcher, did get calls at some point. Basically, be patient.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Nope! It would be really weird if acceptances came out staggered. Last year, all the acceptances came out within a day of each other.</p>

<p>ahhh i hate this waiting… first I got my hopes up earlier today when I missed a call from texas and then an unknown number called around 7:30… all false alarms lol</p>

<p>same… I got a voicemail today… only to find out that it’s from some baby who accidentally dialed my number.</p>

<p>Relax. Those of you who are juniors, this is a very small preview of what it’s going to be like next year.</p>
