Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Undergraduate Transfer Scholarship 2015-2016

I know I went on that whole rant a few weeks ago about people calling the foundation… But this is getting to the point of ridiculous. If they truly had 500 semifinalists… Why couldn’t they narrow it down to their top 200 and tell the other 300+ of us that we are out months ago. Do a semifinalist round, a finalist round, and a winner round.

Here we are on Wednesday, the day several people said we would get some sort of email and nada.

Same boat, still haven’t heard anything. I’m gonna send an email to the scholarship email asking what’s up. They may not be able to tell us anything, but maybe news of the semifinalist woes will make its way to the powers that be and this won’t be repeated next year.

Congratulations to all that have heard/won!

Yeah, my college president called today because my PTK advisor called her, and JKC even told her notifications would be going out today. Frustrating lol.

This is ridiculous. They need to get it together. Flip a coin or something. Lol.

@nekozuki, how to pm on this platform?

@CalculonZoidberg Top right hand corner of the page next to your username is a little message icon (between the globe and star icons

Feels errbody. Chalking this supposed announcement Wednesday among the likes of Y2k, December 2012- just another wash amidst the many we’ve had so far. lol.

I was just told this afternoon that I am a recipient!
The feeling is unreal

I hope the rest of you hear soon!

@TransferStudent2016 did you receive the double emails ? Just curious

I did!
My advisor was told Friday of my acceptance and I was surprised today

Well, I guess I could conclude thus far that all the winners also received the 2 previous emails… If that’s the case I’m also screwed.
Welp student debt here I come!!

Can any of the people that have won tell us if their dashboard says anything other than completed?

PS. I’ve only received the semi-finalist email…still holding out hope though

Hi guys, I’m one of this year recipients. My dashboard is still the same. Hope that helps. And no, my real name’s not Ariana Venti :stuck_out_tongue: stay hopeful. Schools have until tomorrow to notify you. So I think actual notifications go out next week.

:slight_smile:

Congratulations @ArianaVenti! Did you receive both of the email requests after your semifinalist notification? Those of us who didn’t are trying to determine if any of the winners thus far did not receive those requests.

I have just contact with JKFC and they said that they are still in process of sending email. Let wait couple weeks. It makes me feel confused.

A part of me is starting to believe that there will be no email and we’ll never hear from JCKF again…

Same… :frowning: @ElizaHam
