“Our Regular Decision deadline (January 1) has been extended to January 8 for students who have been impacted by severe weather in recent days. You do not need to ask for permission to take advantage of the extension. If you have been impacted by severe weather, you may submit your application by January 8 at 11:59 p.m.”
But if it comes from a state where there hasn’t been extreme weather they might start to scratch their heads. @LordBendtner I guess it’s an honors system thing. Do what’s right
All these application portals are making me realize I really did apply to all these colleges and that I really will be receiving notifications in March. It didn’t feel real until now.
I’ll miss the high school experience. Prior to my junior year, I wasn’t really involved socially with my school but I’ve become more involved and I regret not being involved earlier - it is really fun. I’ll miss the dances, the football games, the friends, etc.
But I will not miss the structure of the school nor the academic climate at my school. Basically, I’ll miss the social aspects of high school but not the actual education part.
I’ll miss my physics class (man, I love the boys despite the fact that they give me a hard time for being a girl. It’s all in good fun though). I’ll miss the feeling I get of walking into my college counseling center (the place where I realized I didn’t have to work minimum wage jobs the rest of my life because college is expensive). I’ll miss my calculus, government, economics, computer maintenance, and physics teachers–they’re all the most wonderful, encouraging, and inspirational people I’ve met (they’re all eagerly awaiting Pi day with me and I find it funny because it’s almost like they, themselves applied to MIT). I’ll miss a few of my friends and many, many other things.
Meh, high school wasn’t exactly the best four years of my life as promised by relatives and older friends. Idk. maybe it was just me, I didn’t exactly do anything social in HS as a freshman and soph. I defintely do not miss the academic stress, fakeness and drama packaged into the institution we call “High School.” I hear college will be much better, both from the social and academic aspects; I hope they are right.
I wish I participated in stereotypical high school events (prom, football games, etc.) more, but at the same time, I’m glad that I managed to avoid most of the drama.
The only real aspect I will miss about high school is chilling in the library for 1st and 2nd hour. Our librarian hates almost everyone except me XD. I usually just sit in the library on a computer and play games/youtube until 3rd hour (I don’t have a first or second hour). I guess if I could go back, I would take more dual enrollment classes. AP courses at my school are a joke. Everyone fails because the teachers are too gullible.
It hasn’t even hit me that I’ll be graduating high school in a few months. College is going to be such a completely new and different experience that I don’t know if I am either excited or absolutely terrified. Perhaps both…
Random thought, but I find it refreshing that almost everyone on CC has good grammar and actually uses commas. It bothers me to see otherwise, honestly. xD
