The Journey vs. the Degree. S.O.S.!

Applying to College
1

<p>I was accepted to the following schools:</p>

<p>School Name, awards (cost for me to attend per year) - other info
Juniata, Presidential Scholarship (15k)
Denison, Presidential Scholarship (15k)
Berry College, some scholarship (18k)
St. Olaf, Buntrock Scholarship (15k)
Lawrence, Presidential Scholarship (15k)
Reed, Presidential Scholarship (15k)
University of Washington, Honors College (20k)
Smith, Zollman Scholarship/STRIDE (15k)
Carleton, Carleton Scholar (15k)
Wesleyan (15k)
Oxford (60k) - for Biological Sciences</p>

<p>I want to be a practicing therepy person (with what title, I’m not sure). I am in love with Carleton, but at Wesleyan if I push myself I can get my masters in 4 years. I REALLY did not like the vibe at Wesleyan when I visited, but I want to like it because of this “great deal” on my masters. As should be obvious, I qualify for a lot of aid, and I want to be able to not leave grad school with mounds of debt. What to do???!!?</p>

<p>You may want to check on the college GPA requirements to continue receiving the scholarships. If you need the scholarship to attend, any GPA requirement is effectively the GPA needed to avoid “financially flunking out” (e.g. if the requirement is 3.5, you might “financially flunk out” if you get a 3.4).</p>
