Pretty good ECs+volunteer work
Think I had good essays, but I’ve had to write so many for all the different colleges that I really can’t remember.</p>
<p>Not gonna lie, I’m pretty disappointed, thought I had a good chance at getting in. Visited the campus a few moths back and loved it as well as the programs they offer. I guess the saving grace is I probably wouldn’t have been offered much financial aid anyway, and I got offered a full ride to my 2nd choice school, so I’m pretty much certain to go there now.</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone who got accepted. Wish you all the best there! :)</p>
