Having had both knees replaced this past year (college football-Franklin Field-terrible astroturf), I think depressing is
on target.

Was accepted by Tennessee, Ohio State, Tulane, and a few others I don't recall off the top of my head, was simply looking for money and got it. University of Alabama gave me full tuition and I'm going to take them up on it.

I got into Binghamton today

I'm pretty sure I'll end up going there

 

[dw6928]

I see you are from Northern NJ. I grew up in Tenafly. Where do you reside? Congrats on your good news in the mail today. SUNY Binghamton is a fine school

Mahwah as of now, but I'm going to live in Ridgewood upon graduation.
We actually know someone who owns a business there in Tenafly, nice town.

I looked more into the letter, and it's actually a 3/2(5 year) program....bachelor+grad school...BUT I need to maintain a 3.3 and get a 600 on the GMAT...gunna have to work my ass off.

 

[jinp6301]

go bing!

 

[dw6928]

3.3 is not as daunting as it sounds. you will be fine. just stay out of the bars when it gets in the way of your education. (sorry if that sounds paternal).

Most likely attending RIT next year.

lol I'm pretty straigt-edge....but, there's always gaming/music/tv...

 

[dw6928]

stay that way; you will retain far more from your classes than your wayward classmates and grad school will be within your reach.

good advice! I would like to add one thing - watch your debt (e.g. cc) level, even if you are getting scholarships.

 

[dw6928]

also good advice. I know many recent college grads w/ student loan debt in excess of 100K. Tough sleeping with that on your pillow!

 

[Baba booey]

I'm going all the way up to Clarkson tomorrow....6.5 hour trip :|

 

[CDBacklash]

is getting into college even that hard?...

Depends on the college/university and your financial situation
