Whoa...college.

[Nicole8188]

I applied to 2 colleges today. My stress has been relieved. I'm just scared to see if I get in.

I felt like sharing that. I'm happy!

Just my apps done and out of the way last week...it feels great to have them all done and over while my friends are just starting and stressing over them. Great feeling

Not really. I got an 1800. I'm about to take the ACT, too. I am happy that I'm actually getting things done though.

Well i had like a 2.0-2.5 in highschool so i need to score really high on my sats to have schools even look at my application. And i need as much money as they are willing to give me, to so i've been studying my fucking ass off for the damn test for the past month. Grrrrrr fucking sats. I hate that goddamned test. I shoulda taken it before they changed it. I had previously gotten a 1380 on my psat before they changed format. But nooooo, i was gonna go to a tech school what the fuck do i need sats for?? Stupid me. Peace-

That's cool. What colleges did you apply to??

[highteknology]

as far as GPA and stuff goes, schools will still look at you. i had a 2.7 graduating from HS and still got into college. granted it's a state school but still. as far as the money deal goes, you would not believe how many different places there are to look for money. fastweb.com is the biggest. if you're a minority, different race, they have scholarships for almost anything now a days. go and talk to the scholarship office at the schools you are applying to. they are more than accomodating to help you look for money.

if all else fails, go to a CC for a little bit, get your grades and get most of the pre reqs out of the way. they will usually transfer to many colleges and you'll have a better GPA. it will work out.

Stupid new SAT scores...you can't compare anymore!!! No worries about UCF. It's a cinch to get into. Um, same with most regional colleges here. Well, for me...I got into Miami, UF, and FSU.

[PBking82]

Yea i won't get shit for scholarships. I'm white, come from an upper-middle class family but, I have a brother who is currently in school and a sister who allready went to a 4-year school so were kinda strapped for cash. But because our tax-return doesn't say that the gov doesn't give a shit. Fucking government. Peace-

[highteknology]

rob a bank then the other option, probably doesn't sound real good, is to find an inexpensive but good college and just do student loans. you'll be paying them back for a while, but you'll be gettin your education

[93rollaracer]

Well you've just gotten the hardest part out of the way. It only gets better once you get in...just go to classes every once in a while so you can stick around for a while.

And purely out of curiosity sake, where'd you apply? (Hope you didn't post it already)

[highteknology]

yeah, experience college to the fullest, it's the one time in your life where you actually get to have fun.

Yeah, if I had to sum up preparing yourself for College in 2 words, they would have to be: Open Wide.

[highteknology]

HAHA, i love it
perfectly said

Here that often eh Oz???
