The "College Admissions" Thread (for all tfs seniors who are applying)
I notice that a few tfs-ers (including me) are currently seniors in the process of applying to college.
I thought it would be great to have a thread where everyone can chat about their experience, support each other, give advice and feedback, and relieve stress.
I for one, am going through a emotional roller-coaster - and it's only mid-October!

I'll be applying to uni this time next year so i've still got a while to go, but i'm already weighing up my options.
I am thinking about going abroad to study, still somewhere in europe, that would be amazing. If i don't go abroad then i will be going somewhere within the UK. Can't wait!

Ooh I remember applying - very stressful! However, having gone through it, I think a lot of people stress out *too* much. If you're applying into a very prestigious school like Harvard it's difficult to get in, but for most other colleges if you've done pretty well in h.s. you should get in no problem.
Good luck guys, don't stress out much! (easier said than done? haha)

This is my second year having this stressful life!! The only thing I do is to study! all day long, all year... Can't wait for the end of this phase of my life! But I hope the end is near, since my exam will be in 5 weeks!!
Great thread btw.

All I do is gin, sodomy and the lash but that's the British education system for you.

I'm actually in my second year of college. There's this website called college review and it's really good for getting information on how to get into which college's. Especially Ivy league (I've had some friends go to U Penn and it's pretty up to par.) If anyone has any questions though, ask away =).
There's a thread about financing college (including grants, loans, scholarships), here. I am moving the finance related posts to that thread, just so you know.
im so glad to be done with college apps. im just waiting to hear from my first choice school (university of delaware) but i got into the other 2 schools i applied to (yea, there were only 3 that i wanted to go to). im planning to study fashion merchandising
