I’ll be interested to see the number of CCers who get in vs the total. Good luck, everyone!

sMITten · January 26, 2011, 5:11pm

Surely we have at least 50 CCers who have applied. Go for it, put your name on the list!

bigchum94 · January 26, 2011, 5:26pm

When will the results for who gets an interview be coming out?

Kelime · January 26, 2011, 5:56pm

^Last year the results started coming out March 2nd. Hopefully they’ll be around then this year!

i live on the east coast and i came home REALLY late the night it was due but i had until 2:59 AM to send it and it was so frustrating because i didnt realize i was about 300 words over for my first essay (completely forgot to check)
and in two of my essays I had to try to find the accents because i had naive and some other word that i already forgot. haha i ended up submitting at 2:47am easy cost.
and the next day i was freaking out the whole day because i never got a confirmation email saying that my application was submitted.

turns out that their was something wrong with their systems and a lot of kids had trouble submitting their application so they left the deadline open for another day.
i called them to make sure that i wouldn’t get penalized and they said everything was fine.
but i hope everything was good and i just hope to get an interview!!!
fingers crossedd!!

Does anyone know of TASP-like programs that might serve as back-up plans for some of us? Or is TASP truly one of a kind? I suspect that it is. :/

Ancolie · January 26, 2011, 9:02pm

Jordijay23- I applied for my state’s Governor’s School For The Humanities as well, and am still debating applying to a summer program at Emory or Chicago. But aside from Governor’s School, I don’t know of any free ones.

I got nominated for boys state from my school
That ends the 26th.
TASP starts the 26th.

Lol. If, by some stroke of luck, I am accepted to both…the 26th will be an extremely busy day, let’s put it that way.

irishtraveler · January 26, 2011, 11:00pm

Although I am proud of finishing my application, I am certain that I will not get in. Ya know, when you just can sense that you turned something in that had a crappy completion? The only positive byproduct was accomplishing a goal… just not to the best degree. Best of luck to everyone, though!

SGS2012 · January 27, 2011, 12:44pm

Just FYI… called Telluride and they said there were about 1050 applications for TASP and only about 260 for TASS.

Kelime · January 27, 2011, 3:44pm

Ooh, that’s good to know. About a 2 in 15 chance for an interview, not too shabby :]

Sososo nervous!! This is really my only chance to do something this summer. I’m super freaking out.

Aeschylus · January 27, 2011, 4:05pm

Does anyone know how many people they’ll accept this year? I’m guessing 60-72 (15-18 per seminar?), but wondering if anyone has an exact figure…

Kelime · January 27, 2011, 4:13pm

I was under the impression that they said it was 64 -> 18 for each seminar.

tarofang · January 27, 2011, 5:04pm

i think they said somewhere that this year there are 16 people per seminar. it is mentioned in the brochure though, that of those 130 to 140 applicants interviewed, 64 will be offered places.

Kelime · January 27, 2011, 5:46pm

…math fail. Definitely was thinking 16, like tarofang said.
