<p>atlantiz, i basically filled out the app and had my landlord fill out my letter of rec since i dont have an r.a. living off campus. in my essays for my apps i spun it with how much i would learn by living in i-house, not how much i would be able to teach…especially since i dont speak another language. i said that i could show the overseas kids what american students are like. i really didnt expect to get in. good luck!</p>
