If not, I'd like to think that those of us who were at least recommended by a facility are at the top of the waitlist (but I also seriously doubt more than maybe 3-5 people will be plucked from the waitlist).

I would think if you were recommended and have not received an award yet then your facility hasn't been funded. Otherwise, I really think it depends on if you interviewed or not. My facility chose 10 scholars so someone else has more of a chance getting in since 10 different people could decide no. However, some only select 1 person.

Good point. How do you know your facility chose 10 scholars? By just counting on the forums?

Welcome. The Unofficial SMART Scholarship Forum is fully supported through this banner add. In the past, I have relied on this income to pay for all hosting and domain charges, but it has only covered half of my expenses in recent years. If this is the first time you are seeing a banner here, it is because an adblocker has prevented it from appearing (I don't blame you). If you have found this forum valuable, I would appreciate it if you consider supporting its upkeep. Thank you for being a part of this community. -Chris |
