<p>I got bumped down too. and listen to this email I just got:</p>
<p>Dear minniemouse,
…
I am pleased to announce that you have been selected as a recipient of the [blanking for privacy reasons] Scholarship. This award is worth $3,000 per year…</p>
<p>Yea. Sorry USC. I’m not changing my mind at this point in the game. When I found out I was bumped down, I thought I had completely lost in the college admissions game. Thankfully I got into another dream school four hours later with considerable financial aid. Trust me, I know I was lucky to even interview for a scholarship (and receive a Presidential)… but after convincing myself I’d end up at USC, which was only possible with a Trustee, I was disappointed to say the least.</p>
<p>And that’s the end of my rant, I’ll crawl back in my hole now, thankfully I haven’t been on this website in a few weeks.</p>
