I write down good reasons to freeze to death

Nov 08, 2009 20:37

I have a request out of everyone today, and it concerns me getting into school. If you want to know the whole story, it's a bit long bc it's detailed so I put it under the cut. :)

Have you called UNO and explained this to them. Ask them if you can attach a certified letter from your school saying your current semester grades are pending and they'll be on their way as soon as they're ready.

I've got my fingers and toes crossed for you though. Good luck.

good idea! i know that's what I'm supposed to do, but I just have so many things to do it feels so overwhelming & I'm not thinking rationally. but i've written down a list of things i'm going to do next week to get the ball rolling.

and yes, i'm sure UNO has encountered a situation like mine before. i'm not that original, lol :)

I know how you are feeling. I'll be entering college next fall and I'm holding back on submitting my application because I don't feel that my test scores will be "high" enough for scholarships. I have a 24 on my ACT but I want a 27. So I'm super stressed out with the whole college thing, especially since I don't know if I'll be staying at home, in a dorm, with someone else, et cetera. In a way, I don't want to go to college.

Dude. are we twins? I'm having the same thoughts you are!

I, personally, did a lot of my decision making back in July. But as for school, test scores, dorm, I def waited until the last minute. Retake your ACT to get more comfortable with it. Submit FAFSA now. Try to get things taken care of as early as possible, that way you can get it out of the way.
Bc once you get it out of the way, you can start doing the fun stuff, lol :)

We could be! xD

I've already retaken my ACT, and scores will be posted November 10 - December 28. My application is due before December 1. Another reason why I have hesitated is because I don't have the application fee, either. D: My boyfriend and teacher offered to step in and help but I'm really weird about accepting money even if it is for something major.

I'll have to wait until January to start my FAFSA and TOPS. I just put everything off soooo much because I tell myself I have tons of time to do it later. That's a recipe for disaster if there ever was one.
