Nope, I’m from Illinois. I applied to all out of state schools though so, I’m prepared to be spending 38,000 dollars even if I don’t want to. I just had to be realistic about my options. No way I can get into UofI or Northwestern so, my last option was Northern Illinois and that’s like going back to high school, which I hated. No thanks!

It does suck that they don’t have too many option for FA and OOS students. However, I think it’s to their benefit to admit out of state simply because we have to pay more. We don’t have the option of 20,000 dollar a year…so you think they’d be all over it. I’m pretty nervous as well. My GPA isn’t fantastic and my first college semester at the end of 2007 was a disaster. All I really have going for me is a steady, major, increase in grade trends and good previous semester GPA’s. I keep reading these threads where people have gotten decisions like 2 weeks after they applied and its been over a month for me. I’m sitting here going “oh no, I suck” lol
