boston university-accepted w/ accelerated ba
brandeis university-rejected
framingham state college-accepted
ohio wesleyan university-accepted
roger williams university-accepted
syracuse university-waitlisted
wheaton college-waitlisted
so, i can say i'm really not disappointed w/ any of my options. brandeis n bu i was sure i would never get in. i opened my bu email about an hour ago n almost peed myself in excitement.. i only wish they had given me more money bc there's no way in hell i'll ever be able to afford to go there though it is my top choice. (i'm appealing to all of my schools asking for more money though) framingham--never had any intention of going there. i would have free tuition, that was the only reason. ohio wesleyan is the farthest from home, but they gave me the most money, though it would cost a nice chunk of change to fly back n forth a 3 times a year. the people of ohio are way too close to being hicks for me-it kinda scared me when i went to visit. i'm just too much of a city girl to survive there i think. roger williams-i really like. i feel like i'd be settling there, but the campus is just gorgeous-nearly every dormitory has water view. it'd be a lot of fun bc it's so close to providence and boston is never too far away. i'd be about an hour from home. i have a few friends going there too. as for syracuse, i really like it, but my main issue w/ it is that since my great uncle died (he lived in syracuse for as long as i can remember) i can't see myself being there w/out him. syracuse will always be uncle rich and my cousin justin-without them it would feel wrong. and wheaton? i hated wheaton from the start. those kids--they just seemed so oblivious to the entire world around them. my biggest problem w/ wheaton--on campus i did not see one single recycling bin. and that killed me; i could never go to a school that doesnt count social action as a top priority.
so that's the 411 on schools. there's been so much going on lately i havent had anytime to update you. i hope all's well, i gotta run--paper to write. missing you.. forever and always.
