<p>having watched this school for many years, and have a recent CC grad, i can tell you that admissions to cc have become more competitive each year. i watched this thread last year when MANY stellar candidates were denied admission. CC seems to be looking for that “something different” that distinguishes you from other stellar candidates. if you really are “boredtotears” this does not bode well for you. they will pick up on your malaise</p>

<p>Don’t worry, bored2tears is the antithesis of my personality.</p>

<p>Also, I have an interview on November 11, so hopefully they will be able to see me for who I am during those 30 minutes.</p>

<p>good to hear. GOOD Luck - CC is a phenominal school!!</p>

<p>I’d just like to say, the interview went really well. It lasted about an hour, which was longer than I expected it to be, but it was so much fun.</p>

<p>My parents aren’t sure if they have enough money to take me to visit the school before I make the decision to go, but a coworker and another coworker’s son offered to take me there if I couldn’t. I honestly love how supportive my coworkers are willing to be for me. :)</p>
