| Disappointed Students Thread
I understand that there must be at least a fair number of soon-to-be college freshmen whose recent college decisions were largely financially-based. I am one of these students, so I think it's important to have a thread dedicated to venting out frustrations and sharing how you feel after such a disappointing outcome. (If you want to, that is.)
I know I'm feeling kind of cheated, that after all my hard work and effort I've put into academics throughout my life, it really didn't matter. I could have gotten into the school that I ended up "picking" (it really wasn't my decision to make) without working as much as I did or imposing such a high amount of stress on myself. Ultimately, I feel like I'm settling, and I find this very discouraging.
Anyway, if anyone else feels similarly, feel free to let it out here. I know I feel at least a little better establishing my emotions in words for both me and others to see. |
