<p>It took me a longer time to get over it. I think I was still thinking about it during my 1st semester. Once I graduate next year, I will only own $4000 which I was happy about, compared to 110k at the other schools. Now I have to worry about grad school.</p>
<p>ASMAJ, out of curiousity, what schools were you accepted to? I turned down some too, but I am seriously contemplating doing a transfer my second year.</p>
<p>No one asked me, but I turned down Northwestern and Vanderbilt.</p>
<p>I got pretty high scores but only got into Colgate and Vassar. God bless being a male WASP. Even they wanted us to pay 35k a year which meant 25k in loans a year...</p>
<p>So I'm going to UF and got a hot new ride :-D. Now I'll graduate with no debt! I think that's better in the end anyway.</p>
<p>There are many really intelligent people at UF. Its kind of funny sometimes because you will see some people walking about in sweater of schools they either: wanted to go to, got accepted to, or got rejected. I have seen Duke, Emory, Harvard, UMiami, Yale.</p>

<p>Surprise your using that. I heard it can be offense to some.</p>
<p>Hahaha, I'm damn proud of being a WASP... if that offends someone then I'm sorry.</p>
<p>Just got back into the states after two weeks in Europe. I LOVE the US so much, but the political correctness here does get on my nerves.</p>
<p>I was about to ask, since I know WASP is usually used in Europe and Africa.</p>
<p>yeah, I was really bummed out about not being able to afford going to Dartmouth or Cornell.</p>
<p>I really wanted to go to Cornell, wanted to see ithaca, cold weather, snow, hills, mountains, upstate new york....</p>
<p>BUT. Im hoping to get a masters in health services administration....so guess who offers one in college of human ecology! lol i guess i stem off my disappointment with graduate school dreams.</p>
<p>heck, my dad went to northeastern and then to Yale, why can't i go to cornell?</p>
<p>can't wait till PREVIEW though, going july 11 and 12, anyone else goin?</p>
