horriblegb (2022-2023)

Choices as of 3/20

4-29:I see my rejection coming from FSU shortly

4-8: Down to four schools of possibility now. Plan on withdrawing from UNM tomorrow, very nervous to see what happens with FSU, and anything from UIUC. More waiting I suppose :)

4-3:Essentially withdrew from Penn State, did not send in my seat deposit by the first, and going to send in my Villanova seat deposit today. Then Monday will most likely send out my large list of withdrawals. Phew.

3-22: Just withdrew from American, kind of bittersweet, it was my first acceptance, but I will not be able to visit, nor do I wish to pay sticker.

3-15: A day before the 3 month completion mark and I got held at FSU. Getting that LOCI ready, I really hope I don't have to wait until June on my top school choice!

3-11: Rejected from U of Hawai'i, ugh whatever

3-6:Rejected from U of F, which totally sucks, but life goes on, hopefully will hear from FSU good news or waitlist, if not, it is off to Penn State!

3-1: Decision in transit at U of F today, exactly what I did not want, probably in the first big batch of rejections, and that really REALLY sucks

Received $15,000 a year at Villanova, might as well visit there while I am checking out Penn State :)

2-24: I am approaching the 3 month anniversary of sending in my applications, and have still not heard from my top two choices, which I believe means waitlists are coming my way. In that scenario, I am really not sure what I am going to do or where I am going. The anxiety is killing me, I would rather be rejected now, then waitlisted and ponder about what I am going to do (but please accept me :D)

2-12: VERY disappointed to not receive the full scholarship from Stetson that I was lead to believe that I would receive. I most likely will not be attending now. :( My hopes were just a little too high I guess!

2-8: Just received $60,000 over three years at Penn State, absolutely floored

2-5: Yay scholarship money! Finally!

2-4: Just got rejected from Virginia, am I surprised? No. Disappointed? Not really either, I would probably not have fit in there, and therefore wouldn't have really enjoyed myself. The first rejection does sting a little, but I am in the process of visiting schools in Florida, and was informed by Stetson that I have been recommended for a full-ride scholarship, and that is a hard buzz to kill! Haha

1-29: Wished I had gotten in, but I am still lucky to be on the waitlist I think, only hope it turns into good news further down the road!

Also got into Seattle, another school to visit haha, I am getting anxious to see if anyone will be willing to throw some scholarship money my way, so the waiting continues . . .

1-26: Decision will be made on Friday at Illinois! Very nervous I would love to go to that school! Still waiting on all the others, and becoming very worried about how long I have been under review at U of F and Cardozo, but there is nothing to do but wait!

1-22: Accepted at Penn State, very excited for this! How could I not be, my cycle is going much better than expected!

1-17: Accepted at Stetson, waitlisted at Washington and Lee, pleasantly surprised I must say, since W&L is definitely a reach for me!

1-14: Decision mailed from W&L yesterday, I cannot say that I think it is good news, but I also think it was worth a shot to apply

1-13: Decision mailed from Stetson today, excited, but still anxiously waiting on those other schools

1-6: Finally, everything is complete as of today, now it is just more of the waiting game, but at least I know my schools have everything, now just to get the motivation to work on the FAFSA

1-4: 3 for 3, pretty happy about it! Fist pump!

12-27: 2 for 2, i feel very confident now! Very excited to go visit Miami! (and yes, I realize the two most expensive accepted me first, I can still be excited! And am!)

12-18 pm: In at American, I feel relieved, and I am sure my friends and family do too, they do not have to continue riding my irrationally emotional roller coaster. I am going to law school!
12-18:Status change to "under review" to day at Penn State and U of Florida, yikes

12-17: I have a feeling that I will not be hearing any good news before the holidays, and beginning to doubt my school choices, but maybe it is just extreme pessimism, but I don't think so! haha

12-15: Decision made today at American, I am very nervous considering how fast they decided!

12-14: Under review at Cardozo, I know decisions are far away, but still feels good to see something

12-10: And I thought waiting for my LORs was rough! (and it has only been a week!)
