<p>I see a pattern emerge… I am sensing that the deferral gods are sensing our pain, and rewarded us with the Emory and Oxford Scholars Finalist status… 
Just kidding, but it makes me wonder whether or not they picked us with yield in mind, thus why some other highly qualified (perhaps more qualified) applicants were not chosen. ?? Of course, we all deserve it for our hard work! For those not chosen, everything happens for a reason, and I am sure that all of you will have successful application seasons despite this minor hurdle!</p>
<p>I just called the Oxford office to ask about how many/how much scholarship will be awarded, no answer. I emailed a Nicholas Missler to ask the same question, we’ll see when and what he responds with. Any of you joined the FB page for admitted students? Is the page only for admitted Finalists at this point? The Oxford page has 77 members already!</p>
