YES!
Virginia Tech is offering me a $6,000 scholarship and who knows how much Financial Aid.
University of Connecticut also accepted me
Not really the big colleges I want, BUT YAY!
I already know i was going to get into those..but getting the letters is still exciting!
Nice going dude.
You guys in the US are so lucky getting accepted early. Here in Canada (at least UBC, UofT, Mcgill) you don't get confirmation until April at the earliest for regular admission.
I didn't get confirmation until December, at which point they're like: Here's a big folder filled with a bunch of little booklets regarding student associations. O.o
Then again, in the Netherlands you get unconditional acceptance as long as you pass high school exams. This is only for universities. For some private (university) colleges you might have some difficulty getting in. And also if you're studying (veterinary) medicine you have to pass a central selection round because of too many people applying.
Nice, and congrats!
Speaking of college, I'm working on an honours project and I'm supposed to build a dreieckspannungs generator (triangular voltage generator). It's pretty neat actually since it produces a triangular voltage wave without giving it an input signal.
No need to translate the German, I understand you fine just like that.
I thought of joining the Physics Honours program at my uni, but then I realized I had to do more experimental physics and I lost interest.
I'm disliking physics in general compared to mathematics, and I hate the practical part even more.
That's it, blocking every kpop gif.
Butthurt?
Lucky. I qualify for no financial help at all. The universities here don't give out scholarships either.
UK doesn't do things the same, you get confirmation of admittance a couple months before final exams, if you're an outstanding student or you applies somewhere schiit then you get an unconditional offer, so your final grades have no bearing on if you have a place or not, it's guaranteed. For most, the offer is based on you hitting given entry grades and you'll know if you get in when results come out in August.
You're allowed one firm university choice and one backup.
Don't you get financial aid from the government in the UK as well? At last in the Netherlands you receive anywhere between €100 and €350 monthly depending on your financial situation, and you can take zero-interest-rate student loans up to €10,000 per year as well. On top of all that you also get to use public transport for free.
All of that, and perhaps a small part-time job, should be more than enough to pay housing, food, insurance and tuition fees. (especially since tuition is about €1800/year.)
Which is exactly why I'm fine right where I am.
I may decide to do a Master's degree in a foreign uni, but probably not. It's so much cheaper right here in the Netherlands, and my university is actually in the worldwide top 100, so it's not bad either (at all).
7eps into evangelion....
It's moving along pretty slowly, nothing much happening or explained.
MC is pretty unlikable so far.
Wonders why so many people like it.
I hope it's like steins;gate where I'll suddenly go "OMG THIS IS THE BEST SHOW EVERRRRR" half way through.
Nobody likes the MC, and you're not supposed to either.
It was pretty much my first anime I ever watched, so shut your mouth and just watch it. And do not dare skipping the OP's and ED's; they are both nothing short of majestic.
