You apply yourself. I think the app will open next August for your DD, who will be a senior next year.

Merit and leadership/EC. I think leadership and EC probably weigh a lot.

Very high honor! Your daughter should be proud of herself. It's a great cohort of young leaders and academic rockstars. Recently elected mayor of Boston, Michelle Wu, was a Coca Cola Scholar back in the day.

Interesting. I've never heard of it. Pepsi had one that my DS applied to but the awards all went to URMS.

It can be a great recognition depending the schools she's targeting.

My DC got an email that she is a Coca Cola semifinalist. She is a senior with plenty of service hours. Her UW GPA is 4.0 and W GPA is 4.37, SAT 1500. Is this recognition something she should send as an update to her 'early' schools?
