FIRST Scholarships

[Alexander McGee]

I got mine to Kettering about a week before Nats, and Bob Nichols gave a formal presentation at the competition. Defineately the only way I have been able to afford KU without student loans.

I have won the Olin Scholarship this year. While I found out from Olin College before FIRST, I received an e-mail from FIRST congratulating me on winning a FIRST Scholarship about a week ago. The e-mail didn't say which scholarship I had won. I received a follow-up inviting me to a couple things for scholarship winners at the Championships.

Good luck!

Woah, going to Olin? VERY VERY NICE. Say hi to Gui for me there

I got the UD FIRST scholarship and I'll be manning the table on Friday for a bit for anyone who wants to ask me questions.

I didn't find out till after Champs.

Are you a junior

[Master Dictator]

yes.

Believe it or not all of the rest of our robotics team this year got accepted to Drexel, all 6 of them. One of the kids though changed his mind and is going to UPenn. So next year it will just be me on the team and that would be awsome if I got accepted now so its a lot less pressure off of me during senior year.

I applied and recieved the FIRST Scholarship from Temple University. I was about 4 weeks late on getting my papers in due to regionals and such but luckily they accepted it and i found out from a Professor on Saturday that i got the scholarship. He had asked me if i had gotten anything in the mail and i said no and he said "well you will be recieving something from us and FIRST, congratulations" i was very happy to hear this great news considerign my hopes were not that high.
