<p>alright so im in a really bad situation, im 21 and my dad died this summer and i left my university in texas to take classes at my local community college in the pacific north west. i was really set on U michigan but i was denied and when i asked they why they told me it was because i had 2 c's and a w last semester but that was because my dad died and i had to fly home for long periods of time ( i explained the whole situation on my app). i am really unsure of what to do now, i took the fall of 2012 semester off and ive basically been sitting in my house for the past 6+ months doing absolutely nothing, i dont have many friends in my town because i went to a boarding school for high school. </p>
<p>i am applying to Umiami, boston university, and William and Mary also and i have not heard back from them yet but i was really set on Michigan and all these schools are very far away from my house near washington state. i wanted to apply to Uw-seattle but since im not a usa citizen i cannot apply till next summer or fall. my problem is that im 21 and i have never really had the college experience that i want, i feel like im getting older and i missed all the fun of living on campus and such. ive spent many times in my life doing absolutely nothing and i want to be back with other students.</p>
<p>i currently have 53 credits and i was thinking about doing a study abroad semester at U sydney for the spring term but i am not sure if the credits will transfer anywhere and i wanted to graduate by 2015.</p>
