College applications

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

I got accepted into UC San Diego and waitlisted to Harvey Mudd.  

[Sanee]

UCSD, you mean? Congrats. biggrin
I think you should seriously consider going there. It's a really good school, and I don't think it's too far from where you live. (It's even a bit far for me!)

I was thinking about trying to get into UCM when it's my time to apply, but it's so far away! D;
Since it's a new school, I heard Admission officers would be more lax on grade requirements and stuff.
But I really want into UCSD. And if you go, I have one more reason why I'd like to go.  

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

Okay, here's the updated and final list of college acceptances, in order:

1) Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo
2) Harvey Mudd (waitlisted)
3) University of California, San Diego
4) University of California, Berkeley
5) University of California, Los Angeles

I like Berkeley, though. [drags Sanee to Berkeley] But yeah, UCSD isn't that bad, I know. I'll think about it.

I don't think I could get into Berkeley. Plus, it's too far for me.
If you go to UCB, I'll be sure to visit though. 3nodding

Plus, I'm not planning on going directly to a UC. Gonna transfer from a local community college into UCSD or some other college.  

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

If you do decide to transfer, it will take about an average of two to four years to get in.  

[Sanee]

...What? Man, that just crushes all my hopes and dreams. I'll take forever to get to college now! You'll all be finished before I'm halfway done. Also, I wouldn't be able to visit, especially if I study abroad in Japan. cry

But, Miracosta said it has guaranteed admissions to UCSD if you follow through with it's transfer program!  

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

Sure, transfers may be gauranteed, but in how long?

The juniors have to prepare their applications this year. Hm.  

[Sanee]

...I never really thought of any time constraints.
I need to do research badly. And then pray for a chance to get into college now.

You speaking in general, or just at your school? Wait...you're a senior, right?  

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

Juniors, in general. Well, namely Ocean. And Bendeh. And all the juniors that I know.

Yes, I am a senior.  

[Sanee]

I think I'll have to do that too. World History (9th) and U.S. History (11th) students have a career/college unit after the normal coursework is done with. Even APUSH students have to do it too.

I can't be the youngest one here! D;
Aren't Firi, Neko, and possibly Wenchy younger than me?  

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

Yes, they are.

And we have to get Neko and Wenchy onto IRC regularly. That way, Firi won't be the youngest one there all the time.  

[Sanee]

...I get the hint. I'll come on again. Eventually.  

[[.Cat.in.the.Toaster.]]

Relax, there's no rush. Do this out of your own volition, not mine.  

[Sanee]

Okay. I'll get on when I don't have to share this computer with the rest of my family. I can't really download an IRC client onto a shared computer, so...yeah.
