<p>LOL. Azu, hahaha, i love the smiley usage, I can totally see someone doing that. But yeah, you’re fine.
</p>
<p>And I agree with Molly, there’s not much left we can do. I’m collecting midterm grades on Mon/Tues and mailing them out on such, just in time for the deadline. My FA is confirmed to be good so there’s that.</p>
<p>I feel like I’ve done all I can do. I’m mega nervous of course-this is much different from my scenario last semester.</p>
<p>Last time, I applied to SUNY Oswego, SUNY Geneseo, Siena College and Cornell. I heard back from Siena instantly (for Biology) and they were like ‘yeah! come here!’ plus one of my best friends goes there. Then Oswego accepted me, Geneseo denied me, and as May 1st rolled around I had waited so long that I was just convinced Cornell was ready to send out a big ol’ batch of denials and I’d just have to accept it since I knew I had been a long shot.</p>
<p>What sucks was, right before I got the Cornell decision, I was fighting with my parents to let me go to Siena and just put the debt on my shoulders for when I graduate. (They actually charged us more than Cornell, a whopping $39,000. For my family since my dad makes just enough money to not get aid, but not enough money to substantially pay for me, that’s too much.) And believe me, if anyone of you have seen or been to Siena, it’s NOT worth that much money to go there.</p>
<p>Point being, it was basically either choose Oswego, a place I really didn’t want to be, and just stay there (because my parents refused to let me go through transferring <em>again</em>) or wait at my CC and apply to Cornell again…luckily I got in. Unluckily, two weeks later they gave us like, nothing in aid.</p>
<p>The problem this time around is, I don’t get to choose Siena or another school if I don’t get in, I have to be stuck at home…for six more months…and that’s only provided that I actually get <em>in</em> the next time around too. I REALLY cannot stay here anymore. It’s like, a purgatory stage between high school and the real world. I’m sick of being bombarded with “How’d your test go? What did you get? Is that failing? How much homework do you have? Did you finish the laundry? Can you go drive here, here, here, and here for me and get these things? Can you pick up your brother?” Kalskdfjiehfudanf …</p>
<p>lol. So yeah. Can’t really take much more of it. I’m putting my confidence chips on the table, though. I can’t think of a reason why they would accept me one semester and not the next, provided of course that all of you aren’t also CALS Com majors with 3.9+ GPAs and better recs than me. (I know one of you is, haha, but let’s keep it at that number!)</p>
<p>And yeah, the waiting will probably kill us, then the decisions will be like being raised from the dead.</p>
<p>[/rant] Haha. It’s good we have this support group. I hope everyone either gets in or gets into one of their other choice transfer schools. For that scenario, remember Cornell might be awesome, but so are some other places! Given the right mindset, I could definitely get to Siena and then Cornell for grad school. Keep your heads high guys, we’ve got no reason to be down about whatever happens.</p>
<p>EDIT: Holy crraaaaaaaaap, longest post of my life much?</p>
<p>I have the midnight munchies. I’m getting a donut, lol.</p>
