When is the deadline for both of these scholarships? I went on SGU's site and i could only find the commonwealth scholarship program application, how were u able to access the application for peace and the legacy scholarships?

Yeah that one saskatchewan person on the facebook group is me haha. I doubt there will be many because not too many people know about the school

I'm not Iwish, but here is the link http://www.sgu.edu/website/sguwebsit...licationUS.pdf

Although, you really do not have to worry about it right now. It should come with all the financial aid info. I contacted the fin. aid department, they said we will get that packet in May sometime. For some reason there was a need to change some odds and ends thus they are pushing it back a little, they did not get into specifics though.

School: Cornell U (hence, the signature)
cGPA: 3.5
sGPA: 3.6
.....both were significantly improved due to Fall '07 GPA
MCAT: 24R (yeah...below the SGU average)
ECs: 7 years research experience, 1 year clinical
LOR: waived my right to see 2 of them, but the 3rd letter from my research PI is amazing...IMHO

I interviewed in November...updated my file with improved grades and still no word. I was told that apps are only reviewed the 1st week of the month but my filed was updated in mid-January. If they wanted to reject me....just do it already. I have no intention of accepting FOM if it is offered...I already have an excellent plan B and am retaking the MCAT in May so I am considering the thought of asking to have my application withdrawn from consideration. We'll see....I'll contact my counselor in mid-April.
