Starting to wonder if I am crazy for only applying to 3 schools???
Perhaps I am naive to think I could only apply for one goal, likely and back up school.

4/8/09 - Called Gonzaga to confirm that my application was complete (had only received an email on 3/26/09 that my LSDAS report had been requested). Not only was it complete, but a decision letter had been put in the mail this morning! Fingers are crossed.
4/9/09 - Received email from California Western with financial aid information. Can I assume this means I'm in?
4/11/09 - Accepted via snail mail to Cal Western today. I would jump for joy for being accepted, but it's a T4.
4/13/09 - Accepted by Gonzaga via snail mail today! PLUS, $15,500 yearly scholarship assuming I stay above a 2.7! This is a great day!
The only down side is that I fell under the deadline for the first seat deposit which is due on 4/15/09. I've got two days to put down the deposit and decide if I want to do the summer program. I hope the hubby and I can come to a decision quickly!
4/14/09 - Finally received login information for Seattle U's status checker. I also got an email confirming that my application was complete on 3/12/09 and that the review process could take 6-8 weeks.
4/16/09 - Wow, $76,000 scholarship from California Western. That, plus the sun and the beach is a hard offer to refuse in comparison to dreary WA. Still, I am leaning towards Gonzaga. I've had some great conversations with them and think it will be a good fit.
4/23/09 - Gonzaga cracked the top 100!!! T1 here I come!!!
4/29/09 - Admitted to Seattle U via status checker! Can't wait to see that big envelope in my mail box soon!!! Hopefully they offer some $$$ because the cost of living is much higher on that side of the state. Regardless, I went 3 for 3!!!
5/11/09 - Finally received acceptance packet from Seattle. Offered $5,000 Trustee scholarship. Not enough to give up Gonzaga. Also, the materials were all black and white with tiny print. It made going to Seattle seem as exciting as going to prison. I don't expect much, but a few pictures and some color would be nice.
