<p>I wasn’t expecting so many replies! thanks 
Yes, I had heard that U.S. students don’t really get any financial aid, which put me off a couple years ago, when I first researched Oxford a bit. I thought I could come back and look and find some magical loophole:) That didn’t happen. So, I don’t think I’ll be going there as an undergrad. I’ll save up my money to go there for grad school and a Ph.D.
I love the idea of having tutorials, I think you’d learn so much more in that environment. And, just the look of the place is amazing. I love the ancient buildings. Last Christmas my family went to England and I begged my dad to take us to Oxford, which we did one evening, though the whole place was closed down for the holiday. Those buildings just breathe learning. It’s such a cool place.
So, like I said, I’ll wait for grad school to go there:)
I’m not graduating until 2006, so I wasn’t looking to get in this fall.
I didn’t know the National Honor Roll was a sham. Thanks for warning me! I also got the Who’s Who in America, and thankfully found out about that (on this website) before applying. They really are just after your money. It’s awful.
Hey, if you can recommend any U.S. colleges where I could study Medieval History and Literature, let me know. Most colleges I’ve looked at so far only offer a class or two on the subject.
And btw new<em>york</em>cityx, I’m from Rochester, which is about an hour west of Syracuse. The sun is out there… somewhere. hehehe
mini, that’s so cool that you’re a homeschooling author AND an Oxford grad, besides my interest in history, I’m really interested in educational reform and philosophies, homeschooling, trying to improve public schools, etc. Wanna suggest some of your books or articles for me?
thanks for all your suggestions and good luck in your studies!
