I think this is the right forum? Anyways, yes, I know people who found out at the weirdest places, but it makes it the most memorable

Don’t have a dream school. Have a lot of schools you would like to attend. Then you will have several stories to tell here. :slight_smile:

I’ll tell you where I was when I found out I was awarded a full ride to the university I was planning on attending- at home, got a phone call, then proceeded to kneel down on the kitchen floor and said “oh my god” about ten times to the poor lady from the scholarship office. Bless up for no debt in the imminent future.

@silmaril That’s actually really awesome! Full-ride to a university that you wanted to attend is a dream come true for almost anybody :smiley:

Stockholm (of course, I don’t think we even thought in terms of dream schools in 1970).

Bedridden and sick on a cold, icy mid-January Monday afternoon in New Jersey. My dad texted me the news and I leaped out of bed, fist pumping and bellowing with joy. It was as if I magically got better. :slight_smile:

I was in bed, it was around 8 am and i checked my email and saw that decisions were posted, when I saw I was accepted I literally fell out of bed
