I really do not think anyone knows. Personally, I am hoping the official letter arrives as late in December as possible. My son will have 30 days from the date of that letter to decide which school to apply the scholarship towards. This is a major decision - so I'd prefer him to have the opportunity to visit each school one more time while the school is in session. With winter breaks around the corner, he may need to see the schools at the beginning of the spring semester. People on this board may totally disagree with me, and I guess since we know the outcome from the first review board we can afford to be patient.
