<p>Has your child applied for this this year? Do you know a recent recipient?</p>
<p>I applied this year and have gotten two 30-day notifications within a week of each other. I don’t know what that means, but one of my friends got all the way to the polygraph test. He ended up not passing it, though he has a clean record.</p>
<p>Thanks. What is a 30-day notice? We have just recently mailed the essay, transcripts, etc. That is scary about the polygraph.</p>
<p>After they receive your package, 30 days after, they will send you an email describing how often they’ll send updates. Don’t be discouraged when it says that your child’s criteria did not match the requirements wanted. My friend got three of those and was pretty discouraged but he made it to the polygraph as stated before.
Good luck!</p>
