Hello everyone. Has anyone heard from previous award recipients if they received their awards closer to the deadline? Im literally checking my email constantly for a COI email every hour and nothing to date. So worried this means Im not getting nada as far as award goes. They have done a credit check in August but now trying to log on and it's constantly saying error... does anyone have any insight to keep my hope alive LOL?

I received my COI and submitted in forms from my school and my portal has updated to participant I called in and asked for a supervisor to confirm information and she told me I am indeed a participant and to wait for an email from my worker

May I ask when you did your COI and when you got awarded? Just curious of your timeline. Congrats again, as a Christian seeing your strong faith is uplifting! 🙂

Ughhh I really hope this is true but past applicant have said it is. Everyone says they literally send them out up until the last day.

Whichever the outcome will be I've learned to just accept it.

I feel the same way, it's been different this year. Hopefully we hear something but if not we tried our best and dedicated our time for this scholarship, this scholarship doesn't define us, but hopefully were blessed with it while the process is continuing.

Does "Completed Closed" mean that a candidate hasn't been selected? I've never seen this terminology before. When my application was on submitted status, it did not say closed. It's worth calling to ask.

Hello All,

For those of us who have not received a COI as of yet. I just spoke to a representative from the customer service center and she advised me that they will be sending out COI's no later than Thursday of next week. She told me that it is safe to assume that if I don't receive one by then that I likely did not get selected this year. She said the reason for this is that they need to give the schools time to complete their portion of the COIs before September 30th in order to complete the award process. So fingers crossed for all of us. 🙂

Got my participant email today. Congratulations to everyone who won the award, and good luck to all who are still waiting to hear back!
