I'm giving it 2 weeks. That way they could wrap waitlist and second round all into one. My cutoff before I assume there's no more awards and I should accept another offer is June 1st. I figure by that point some people will see movement or I assume they didn't get approved to give out more awards.

To be completely honest. I feel like that list was the second set of awardees....it came out around the same time the second group of temporarily closed came out. And that would make sense for 50% of the scholarships to have not been given out and have that email be worded so weirdly.[/quote]
that would be amazing. lets hope for that because im pretty sure i was on that list for my school...

I'd also like to know how many people have been accepted so far and whether or not they have any sense of how many people will be included in round 2. Also, was that a rejection email we got? These are just my favorites of the 10,000,000 questions I have for them.
I emailed smart asking for some clarification on the email. This is what they replied with today:

"Thank you for your email. The 1st round of awards went out. We do intend to make additional rounds.

Please let us know if you have any other questions."
i wonder if the first round isn't all of the awards.. like from the list, maybe they only awarded some from the list of schools that were the top and maybe they're going to finish the list in the second round
