Has anybody received an acceptance letter yet?
I’m really upset because I didn’t read all of the rules before submitting my application. I wish they would help with starting a program for under funded educational programs. That is something near and dear to my heart. Yet my application was most likely thrown to the side due to me writing about starting a program for education.
Wait how was that against the project guidelines?
@jillllllllllllll I may be mistaken. I could’ve been reading the grant guidelines. Something somewhere said that you couldn’t use educational funding.
Because getting the fellowship and getting the grant are different I think your project is fine for it!
Has anyone heard back yet?
nope
ahhh nope its killing me !
Does anyone know how important GPA/ extracurriculars are for the consideration?
@jillllllllllllll I think ECs are pretty important but I’m not so sure about GPA
oh Okay! What were y’alls extra curriculars ?
I play softball and basketball, I am on Varsity Science Olympiad, competitive Show Choir, and run a volunteer club at my school. What about you?
I’m a speech and debate coach for a middle school, the executive director of my organization, a volunteer for March for Our Lives, I compete in speech and debate as well as academic decathlon! And just a couple of small other things!
The wait! Maybe decisions will be out soon
@jillllllllllllll that’s super impressive! Congrats!
You tooo! I hope you get in! Does anyone know how many people applied this year? I was talking with my friend who got in last year and she said about 900 ppl applied for the 2018 one
has anyone contacted them to ask when the results would come out?
