[</em>] Strengths: Very involved in school, great transcript etc.
[<em>] Weaknesses: SAT score, for sure.
[</em>] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: The Boettcher was a huge factor. Plus I had a ton of other things going for me, in my opinion. I actually feel that the interview helped.
[/ul]General Comments: WOOT WOOT!</p>
<p>whoaness–I am aware of the Boettcher Scholarship. WAY TO GO!!!</p>
<p>Thanks! I’m so excited!! Still waiting to hear from other schools, but the amount of money i’m receiving makes it hard to turn down (I don’t have to pay anything. The Boettcher plus all the money CC gave me, cover EVERYTHING!) !!</p>
<p>My S got one of the substantial CC merit scholarships. I hope that you are justifiably proud of the fact that you can say truthfully that you paid for college.</p>
<p>I hope you attend CC and keep that excitement for CC. I know that my S has never regretted going with the merit money and attending CC.</p>
