New York Women in Communications Scholarship 2009

<p>Hello! I was wondering if anyone applied for this one. I did! :)</p>

<p>I did! Did you get that email about two weeks ago saying they would call people by this Friday! I’m waiting for them to call me. I know I’ll get selected, my application was pretty strong. I’m just tired of waiting. Did you get a call yet? :)</p>

<p>Hey! At last a response! :slight_smile:
I did get the email. What’s this I hear about phone interviews?
Do you know how much the scholarship is for?</p>

<p>From what I read the scholarship can be anywhere between 2500 and 10000 dollars, but I think they usually award like 5000 bucks. I am really depending on this scholarship, especially since I can reapply each year. </p>

<p>Oh and the email said there will eventually be phone interviews and then in-person interviews. I just don’t understand why they are waiting until the last minute to call me, it’s driving me nuts! :)</p>

<p>I hope I get a call!
I guess we’ll have to wait and see. Best of luck to you! :)</p>

<p>thanks you too! Post back here if you find out anything! :slight_smile: If we both win, I guess I’ll see you the luncheon in April. :)</p>

<p>I hope! Thanks! :D</p>

<p>hey did anyone get a phone callll?? they were supposed to call by today?</p>

<p>Nope! I’ve been waiting all night, bahaha. At least I’m not alone.</p>

<p>Has anyone heard anything?</p>

<p>didn’t get one either…hoping i would, maybe they are late!</p>

<p>I’m thinking they’re late too. I’m glad we’re not alone girls! It must mean something. </p>

<p>I’m really not trying tute my own horn, but I had a recommendation letter from a prominent woman in the communication feild(I have had communications-related internships too and good academics). That’s why I would be surprised not to get a call, especially since it’s not too selective because of the limited number of people who can apply you know? You can tell it’s not too competive becaus we’re like the only 3 people on this site who talk in this thread; whereas other threads are pages long with people from this site. lol</p>

<p>I’m sure we’ll all get calls, they just be behind. I’m actually going to call Monday and ask if they alerted everyone.</p>

<p>If you find out anything, please post! :)</p>

<p>yea let us know when you call! i also thought i’d get it…i have been the editor-in-chief of my newspaper for several years, 4.0 gpa, good rec’s, etc.</p>

<p>Yeah I’ll definitely update you guys don’t worry; we’re in this together. :)</p>

<p>did you reach them??</p>

<p>i called… they said they already did phone interviews</p>

<p>what…that sucks! I tried calling, but no one picked up. I can’t believe they did phone interviews already. :frowning: Well thanks for the info lizzz</p>

<p>Anyone else depressed? lol</p>

<p>Maybe they were specifically looking for students in college. Oh, well. There are many other scholarships I have yet to apply for. Best of luck to the both of you! :)</p>
