    Hey Sheila, I don’t know if you will see this comment but I wanted to leave it anyways. Thank you for everything that you explained in the video. Last Thursday 12/9 was my finalist interview and I received word that night that I am going to UW Madison as a Posse Scholar. Throughout the entire process, I used your video to help gain perspective on what I should expect as a finalist in New York. It really helped get through DAP 2 and 3, and just be able to know what I was getting myself into. I hope everything is going amazing for you and your Posse and I hope that you see this so that you understand the impact that something like this can make on people. Again, thank you!

We were in breakout rooms and had to answer questions and do a group activity. In the end, we wrote an essay( we only had 20 minutes!) but it wasn't hard since we were able to choose 3-4 prompts to write about it. Overall I it was an interesting and insightful experience. I, unfortunately, didn't make it to round 2 but I'm wishing you the best of luck!

      @misterhelpyou6599 Год назад

      Hey, following up to see how everything with your interview and if you were granted. I've got interview coming up and was wondering what it was like for Vets.
      Let me know Thank you

    • @wand1sh
      @wand1sh Год назад +1

      @​misterhelpyou6599 I did get it granted. My process was a bit weird going through it, I missed some of the interviews because they didn't have a deadline posted for each year. So I had a solo interview and the in person interview in NYC, but the other guys in my cohort only ended up doing group interviews from what I've heard from them.
      My first interview was with just a Posse recruiter over zoom in October, while the second was in person at their Wall Street office with both Posse employees and various administrators from the school interviewing all the candidates for that school. That was in December. The kinds of questions she talks about happened, but I never had to do any writing assignments during my interviews. The turn around was really quick for me, one of the admissions officers from my school called me a day or two after the interview and told me that I had gotten in.
      I know they put much less emphasis on academics for the vets, I don't remember ever getting any real questions about my education, but I didn't take a lot of college courses while I was in so it might be different if you did take a lot of credits while you were in.
      If you have more specific questions about the process it'll probably jog my memory.
      One thing to keep in mind is that Posse is not /really/ a scholarship, it's more or less a recruiting program where the school agrees to cover your tutition (not fees or room&board). So any more detailed financial questions aren't going to get answered by the Posse folks, you have to wait until you can talk to the finaid people at your school.
      It's really nice having the other vets around but I'll be very honest, the weekly mentor sessions are really tedious, just as a warning lol

      I Have an interview coming up next week. I spoke to a recruiter or whoever it was and mentioned that I have a family and that moving to another state was sort of an issue for me, but he assured me that there was other members who's had the same issues and that they paid for a home for them to live and so on. Do you know of anything in that nature where they'll pay for housing?
