I’ve been lookin around for some time, and I have a pretty good idea what’s out there—we’ll see how that goes, I guess..

-recieved 12,500 a year from NYU
-Waitlist-ed for Boston College
Rejected from Boston University first rejection :(

I visited Maryland on Thursday and Friday, visiting days for accepted students. There were cheerleaders and cutesy nicknames on the dorm room doors. I can’t go there.
The only good part was the student-run, organic food co-op.

Drexel- accepted into the Design and Merchandising program, and the honors college.
$30,000 a year scholarship (it costs over $50,000 with room and board)

Univ. of MD- accepted into the College Park Scholars Program
$1500 one-time scholarhip (aka practically nothing)

NYU- accepted into College of Arts and Sciences, no idea about scholarships yet.

Univ. of Delaware- accepted
$8,000 a year scholarship

Still waiting on William and Mary, Boston College, Boston Univ., and McDaniel.

I’m leaning towards Drexel, if I can afford it.

I went to visit Drexel yesterday and I really liked it. I was looking mainly at the Design and Merchandising program, and it’s super cool.
It’s realllyyy expensive though :(
Like even with a scholarship, I can’t afford it. I have to get a full one, which doesn’t seem likely.

Time is up. I have to choose. I am seriously out of time, both on what my major should be and what I want to do, and where I want to do it at. MASS CONFUSION. I don’t like it, but hey, what am I to do. I think right now, the answer is I am going to have to grow up and bite the bullet on this one. I know it is going to be tough. I will persevere.

now that I’m a junior everyone’s all “college college college” all the timeeeee. SAT scores, grades, extracurriculars, geezeeee.
