____________________________________________________

3/5
-Got an email from UM upping my scholarship to $27K per year if I accept by April 1.
-STILL nothing from W and M. I really only want them for negotiating power, but still...

2/29
-Got my acceptance packet from UF! Finally.

2/16
-My status date changed to 2/15 at UF. Still FR- NDR though.

1/28
-Going to Wake Forest to look at the school and the Winston-Salem area. I am so excited!

1/21
-Still waiting to hear from UF and William and Mary. Fingers crossed!

1/18
-Withdrew from Stetson. About an hour later, I got an email from Admissions telling me that I received a 1/2 tuition scholarship and asking me to reconsider. I couldn't justify paying the same thing at Stetson as I would at FSU or UF, so I confirmed my withdrawal.
-Nothing from W and M, or UF. I'm officially getting frustrated with UF because I applied in OCTOBER and people that applied later with lower numbers are getting decisions.

1/8
-Nothing from UF and W and M. Silence. Getting frustrated- even though I know its unreasonable to be so this early.
-Withdrew from USC.

12/24
-Well, since it is Christmas Eve, I guess I won't be hearing from IU-B, W M, or UF before the holidays. Oh well, I will bask in my joy so far. I am 5 for 5!!!!

12/22
-25K/year at UM with a 3.2 GPA stipulation. I'd still have to pay a ton of tuition, COL in Miami, and have to worry about losing the scholarship if I am not in the top 1/3 of the class. Miami, thank you for the offer, and I am flattered, but I'm thinking no. Eh, I will probably go to visit before I officially withdraw.

12/19
-Got an email from UM congratulating me on getting a scholarship. They told me that the letter is in the mail- no $ amount in the email, though. So I will wait. I hope it gets here before Christmas (especially since I only live a couple hours away!)
-FSU sent me a beautiful t-shirt and hand written card. It's a nice touch. FSU, you are being too nice. It's making an already tough situation even more difficult.

12/15
-Complete at W and M.

12/12
-Accepted at Stetson via email. It's a safety. No scholarship info.

12/10
-Accepted at the University of South Carolina with in-state tuition plus 6K a year (roughly 23K per year total, I believe), good standing stipulation. It's a safety and I probably won't be going there, but it's still a nice feeling to be 4 for 4!

12/9
-Accepted via email at Wake Forest with a $12,000 a year scholarship, good standing is the only stipulation. The scholarship makes this a contender and my most exciting acceptance yet!
-Decision letter mailed from USC. No change from UF or Stetson.

12/7
-Accepted via phone call at FSU! It's one of my top choices, so I am thrilled! No scholarship info, yet.
-Still no changes from UF, Wake, USC,or Stetson.

11/15
-Accepted at UM! Scholarship Information in Dec/Jan. My first acceptance, so I am pretty excited!
