| It's been 6 days since I got accepted...
And I still can't believe it! I'm so excited to meet new people and be a part of the Rice community!
I worked hard and pushed myself to do my best in every one of my classes in college. I was not the smartest kid in high school, and I'm so thankful for the new opportunity.
I visited Rice as often as possible as I was preparing to transfer... The professors at Rice were very generous and even let me visit their classes/listen to their lectures, my friends who were at Rice were nice enough to show me around the campus a million times. :P I took 6 months writing my essays, I wanted to show that I was very serious about attending to Rice even though I was not as motivated in high school.
I will never forget the moment when I checked the status page on 4/25. Thank you Rice!!! <3 |
