High School Class of 2017

@Dax123 Thanks so much for the advice… I’m about to call her!

Well, it’s over. I think it went well. She could tell that I was nervous, though! Is 30 minutes a normal length?

@eyrar99 I think 30 min is pretty average. My friend Interviewed at Harvard and took twice the normal time but did not get in so I don’t think it means much. Don’t worry about it!

How are people already doing interviews?! I feel so behind lol :smiley:

@ZBlue17 SAME I haven’t sent out a single application yet either RIP

I regret

I am up too late again and again

i haven’t sent apps either, though i did request a couple of transcripts today. I guess that means it’s official…I’m actually applying to college. Still can’t really wrap my mind around it.

I submitted four of my applications today!
(Working on college essays during the summer was soooo worth it :slight_smile: )

Does anyone watch action/superhero T.V. shows? I’m finishing Daredevil S2 and I just watched the first episode of Luke Cage.

Am I the only one who feels like it’s so odd that all of this (applying to colleges) is actually happening? I’ve thought about and planned for all of this for so long, it seems surreal to actually be doing it!

HEY GUYS I HAVE A QUESTION. I asked my vice principal for recommendation letter and he agreed to write me one. So, on common app, what section for recommenders would he belong under ? Can I put him under teacher or would he go under other? If so, what type of other would he qualify as? Please help me out, thank you.

Taking the SAT tmrw. However, I’m in a dilemma. My Passport is expired (it expired recently, and I just figured out), and I don’t think I have any other photo id. For ex. I still don’t have a license/permit, and my school doesn’t offer school ids… What should I do?

@coffee-and-cramming Your vice principal taught you? Wow! :o If he didn’t (I’d be disappointed lol), then I would put him under “other.”

@eyrar99 oh my gosh, I’ve been thinking that for the longest time! this time next year, I’ll be a freshman in college! (hopefully :p)

@photogeek8 literally don’t have the time. I’m only keeping up with HTGAWM and Gossip girl as of now lol. Maybe I’l check those out when I get a break.

lol who completed/worked on the FAFSA today?

I started on the easy part, like my name and stuff

Lol, FAFSA. I feel so behind on everything - homework, college apps, ECs.

I’m currently watching Silicon Valley! It’s such a funny show haha

Is the FAFSA and the CSS the same thing? This is so confusing and I have to do everything myself. My parents and my counselor aren’t much help with the college application process.

@penngirlpending That’s a good question because NYU wants both of them for some reason.

Is it true that the earlier you file FAFSA, the more aid you get?
