Dear JMU,
Left my Junior year grades off the application. My 'essay' is just the beginning paragraph repeated 3 times,
then a bulleted list of ideas for other school's essays. It might even say "Dear VCU" at the end.
Checked it a billion times, didn't catch any of it. Cried when I did catch it, at 11pm. Can I get a sympathy acceptance?
Dear GMU,
My mom's birthday is entered incorrectly. This probably doesn't matter to you, but it means I didn't have a present for her today. I also may have accidentally erased that lovely scholarship essay and replaced it with "See attached". I hope "see attached" is an adequate personal statement.
Dear VCU,
I got it all right. Ironically, I probably could've gotten into you if I scribbled my name on the
first application page in pink crayon, and then drooled on the subsequent 6.
Dear CNU, Fordham, Randolph Macon, and Mary Washington
I'm about to apply. Maybe I can get the application right. Maybe not. Can't promise anything.
Its just who I am. But it kills me that I can't make that promise.
