I won a $30,000 Scholarship! It is for around $7,000 a semester. Several foundations like my research and think I will be an excellent historian.

Danke! Actually, I was a history/Poli Sci double major as an undergrad. I decided to work on graduate degrees in history. I have an amazing time doing this, so I am glad I am doing it.

lol, yeah, they have a team. They hired a coach, too. They are doing well. They have a team pic on their website.

oh also, where are you looking to live? somewhere near USF or..? depending on what you want i know a lot of the apartments around the USF area.

if you want your own place, I'd recommend:

St. Croix, Lakeview Oaks, Hidden Palms, Oak Ramble (i live here) and Eagles Point.

Also renting condos is even less expensive, just check out the oracle adverts: www.usforacle.com

Way to go Gregg! I can only hope I'll come across a scholarship like that when I get around to grad school.

What is your major? There are all kinds of offers out there. There are scholarships for history major who are researching the holocaust that offer free room to do so. Stuff like that. It's amazing.
