Germany! :)

Yes, definitely apply for the first deadline–I applied second deadline, because at first, I thought I’d get into UF, but then gave it some more thought and decided to apply to FSU (because I’d heard good things about it), and finally UCF as a backup (didn’t really want to go there, but it was a good backup school). Turns out, I got rejected from UF, accepted to UCF, and on March 17, accepted to FSU! I immediately put in housing, literally right after I found out my acceptance (I checked 2 hours earlier by looking at my tuition deposit $$ due, and found out) and got a housing priority number of 5159!! I was pretty upset, but it was because I hadn’t applied first round and had a chance to get better numbers. Luckily, I applied to living learning community and got into the one I liked the most, so I get a nice dorm Ohoh, and definitely get into FSU honors…your ACT and SAT scores are high enough! If they don’t send you an invite, petition!! That’s what I did, and I got in! All in all, it was great that I got denied from UF, because now I have an FSU LLC and Honors! If I still want to be a vet, I’ll have to transfer there, but we’ll see if I still change my mind in the next 4 years

Oh, and some more advice! Check out the scholarships that are offered on base (you go to school on a base, right? or international?) Either way, there are plenty of scholarships to apply to! and you’re a Florida-native, so definitely apply for Bright Futures; you’ll get the highest award! I’ve won $4000 in local scholarships and Bright Futures is a little over $4000 towards tuition per year (85% of tuition for the highest award), and FSU will give you aid! I have more money than my first year requires, and apparently (I didn’t find this out until I asked the question here a few days ago) the extra money gets deposited into your bank account! How awesome is that?! Good luck, and hope to see you next year!! :)
