<p>derrick, i agree with you. we need to help each other out. especially if we get rejected because then I’ll need all of the support I can get! :/</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone:)</p>

<p>What college @ Vandy did you apply? what major?</p>

<p>CAS and I selected English/Communications although i plan to pursue the pre-journalism track if accepted. Does everyone think this year’s pool of applicants will be even more talented than last year’s?</p>
