Karen’s accomplishment is especially notable considering there were more than 54,000 seniors who had applied, making it the largest and most competitive group of candidates in the program’s history. Only 1,000 Gates Millennium Scholars were selected out of 54,000 applicants nationwide. The chance of winning this prestigious scholarship is less than 2%. The Gates Millennium scholarshipis awarded to the most extraordinary students based on exceptional leadership,community service and academic achievements.
