It's finally OVER!!!!!!

My College App!!!

I finally turned it in today for Early Decision!! Now, I can finally get back to the Yard for a bit. Then it sucks because, if I don't get into ED, I have to reapply. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Hopefully I get in. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

And to keep with forum rules, Busse Kin Knife!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Good luck! Man I can't believe I'm almost done with college. I just registered for my last semester! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> Enjoy your time!

Ratweiler is probably my favorite swamp rat design.

Good luck! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Good luck with college, Sharp. Make the most of it while you have the opportunity! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

ditto...

do everything!!! study abroad, clubs, volunteer, cool internships (with scrapyard/busse SR <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ) and look for the hard classes.

We are pulling for you Sharp!

Here's hoping all of your dreams come true,you deserve it!!


Peace.

Good luck, Sharp! Also, what school and program did you apply to?

Good luck! I hope you enjoy your time in college, I sure did. I also hope you have good professors. It can definitly make or break your entire learning experience.

Well done Sharp, and best of luck! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

Good luck and have a lot of fun in college!

Thanks you guys. I'll do my best.


I applied to Carleton College. Beautiful campus and a nice town. I'm definitely gonna join the CANOE club, which is Carleton's outdoor club. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Carleton's also has a really strong history in Pre-med so I'm hoping to go in that direction.

If I don't get into Carleton through ED, then I still have a bunch of really good back-up colleges.

My parent's have been thinking about applying to Universities but I still feel like sticking to the small liberal art colleges. Though, Emory might be nice. In Atlanta. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> BLADE SHOW!!!

if pre-med's your thing, go to any school where you can be comfortable and excel. a good GPA is more important to the med schools than the school it came from. it's good that you're goin in with a plan.

i love that knife.

good luck!!!!!!!!

I am finishing up with graduate school in May and commissioning as a 2LT into the US Army as an Ordnance officer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'd never heard of the Early Decision program; I just looked it up on Wikipedia. I enlisted early in my senior year, so wasn't exposed to college application options.

It was only in my mid-30s, after being fired with the statement, "Your job's not to think, it's to do what you're told!" that I enrolled in Indiana University, eventually graduating with a Computer Science BS and a Business Administration minor. So, while being fired was a traumatic experience (even though I really disliked that job), it turned out to be a significant positive turning point in my life.

Again, thanks for the support, you guys.


I was thinking of actually doing a binding of Med School and College. There are certain colleges that do that and I would be guaranteed Med School after College. Course, my GPA would still have to be good, 3.6 and above probably.

Though, Carleton does have a really good career counseling group and, as I said before, a really high acceptance rate into Med-School.


Wow. Good luck and God bless you with your service RS! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />


Yea, I mainly wanted to do ED because I really don't want to go through applying to 110293129301 colleges and answer all the supplements and re-ask my teachers for recommendations.

It's really awesome to hear that you went to University of Indiana. It's a really good national university, tier 1.

Good luck mate.

Havent even thought about college as I'm enlisting, I'm planning on figuring all that college stuff out after I have spent some number of years in.
Of course my dad doesn't want me to join but I feel I can not live in this country without serving it.
