<p>I just got my NOVA email about nationals! im very elated. did anybody else on this forum get this email?</p>
<p>Top 3? I got it. What category are you in? Mine’s in the Investment Aptitude one. I would have liked to have done something for the Enterprise leadership thing, but I put it off… Submitted the investment prompt 5 minutes before the deadline lol. Also, they entirely did away with the regional categories due to, I’m guessing, total domination by the East coast. Thank you for throwing it up here or I would have never heard of it. Good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks, good luck to you too. I’m sure that the total domination East Coast was a major factor (i can’t really imagine the midsection of the US submitting that many applications!)</p>
<p>Wow Top 3 in the US is really dizzying for me! 
</p>
<p>good luck to all.</p>
<p>Sorry for double post. the thread won’t let me enter twice. </p>
<p>I ALSO got in for Investment Aptitude so i guess we’re competing against each other.</p>
<p>Also Top 3, but in Biotech Business :)</p>
<p>sadly! i didn’t get the email. does that mean im disqualified?</p>
<p>They posted the results! 
I won 2nd place.</p>
<p>Sorry to inform you CC’ers, but the NOVA business challenge is actually a fake organization that was started in 2008 by a high school graduate from a local school.
If you check up the statistics for this website- they don’t match</p>
<p>[novachallenge.org</a> WHOIS domain registration information from Network Solutions](<a href=“http://www.networksolutions.com/whois-search/novachallenge.org]novachallenge.org”>http://www.networksolutions.com/whois-search/novachallenge.org)</p>
<p>First of all, the address is in England, and its only a common residency.
Second of all, the name Asavir Kalla isn’t mentioned on the website
Finally, although the competition was “started” in 2005, the website was
registered in 2008. </p>
<p>A local school newspaper ran an article exposing the deceitfulness of this fake organization. It was actually started as a practical joke, but it grew out of proportion.
So please do not write this as an award on your college applications</p>
<p>Wow, is that true? ^^^</p>
<p>I just tried to look at the info for the contest, and the website’s not showing up?</p>
