[/ul]**General Comments: ** I’m pretty happy with this decision it’s a huge load of stress off my shoulders. It’s weird because like 40 kids from my school applied and since we’re out of state I’m not sure how others did. But I kind of had a clue that I might be accepted because my school does Naviance and my stats were in the section where all the green acceptances were, so yeah. Good luck to everyone else receiving their decisions!!
