Well, after the past few months of anxiety over which colleges will accept me, acceptances and rejections have finally arrived. I do feel a bit disappointed in the results, but it’s not bad. I just had higher expectations. Today I cleaned out my ‘college stuff’ accordion folder, cause it’s time to finalize things. Below are my results, not sure if I should really publicize them, but I don’t see any problem in doing so at the moment! Click the fancy button, an amazing picture awaits you!
- Cal Poly San Luis Obispo – waitlisted
- San Diego State University – accepted
- UC Berkeley – rejected
- UC Los Angeles – rejected
- UC San Diego – rejected
- UC Santa Barbara – accepted (after waitlist)
- UC Santa Cruz – accepted
At first I was considering seeing if I got into Cal Poly after waitlist stuff is over (I suppose I still will), but I figured UCSC is better science-wise, and after all my major is Bioengineering. San Diego State isn’t bad either, but I hear UCs are a lot better faculty-education wise? I’m not sure, but I kind of already liked UCSC from when I first interviewed someone who attends there during junior year. Plus I like the lovely Santa Cruz Beach. :)
So right, I’ve basically decided I will be going to UC SANTA CRUZ, but I still want to visit it before officially accepting. Plus, it’s required to decide the top five colleges I want to be affiliated with over there, and I’m still a bit indecisive on which ones. Hopefully when I visit, I’ll be more certain of which five.
I am a bit disappointed with the other UC results. I was hoping UCSD would take me, and UCLA and Cal were my tops. Nonetheless, I am absolutely relieved that I’ve gotten into places, and that I’ve gotten into a UC, which was my goal. I don’t know what I would’ve done if none of them had taken me. I probably should have applied to some privates, maybe that was a bad decision on my behalf. Oh well, too late!
Sorry if this was a lame read, not much interesting things have been happening. Yay Banana Slugs. And don’t you just love the picture below? :)
Banana Slugs, do they eat children?
