Not Worried Anymore!!!

Remember when I started a thread a few days ago and was not to sure what to do cause i didn't think I could pay to go to school. Well I applied for a student loan without a cosigner the other day and was approved for it. Now I have the money to pay for college. So this January I will be leaving to Southern Illinois University in Carbondale to study Automotive Technology. This is the only school in Illinois that offers a bachelors degree in Auto Tech. I am one step closer to realizing my dream of opening up my performance auto shop.

congrats....good luck:D

:cool:

Awesome! :cool: Congrats. :)

Thats cool. I'm glad things are working out for you.

Congrats!!! :D :sun: Now if only I could become motivated enough to get FA for this term, we'd all be set! :p

well guys got some news. I found a loan for school, if I go to Southern Illinois university it will be for management with an emphasis on entreprenurship. Didn't get into the auto program as i orginally thought only made it to the final selection pool. I found out they only accept 30 students in the fall and 9 in the spring, so I don't feel to bad about not getting in, but I switched over to management and got in. So if I go to college it will be for management so I will know how to open my own business, hopefully an automotive performance shop. I am still considering UTI, but not to sure. If I go to UTI I get to learn how to work on cars and how to build performance engines and such, but I won't get a grounding in business and won't know how to open my own shop. If I go to Southern Illinois University, I will learn how own and operate a business, but won't know jack about cars. Its a tough decision. What would you guys do? Your advice and comments will extremely helpful.
