U of A
I don't really know how to feel, cause I got into University of Arizona, my top choice school, with the max scholarship I can get as an out-of-state applicant. Only $10k, but it is like 60% of the tuition... unlike my scholarship here, which is more, but only about a quarter of total costs.
I really want to go, but all of a sudden I'm so scared. I'm scared of all the reasons why I somehow won't be able to. I have to figure out all these things...I realized I don't even know the proper procedure for telling Northeastern that I'm transferring! Heh.
Another worry is transfer credit. Because of AP credits, at the end of the semester I was going to have 46 credits here. UA doesn't accept my AP credit, and it apparently doesn't accept all of my college credits, either. It accepted 3/4 classes from last semester (not globalization), and I'm worried that it won't take human services this semester. Even if it doesn't, though, I'll still have 24 credits--enough to be considered a sophomore, but what if they don't accept another one? I think I can go to appeal in the fall for credit for the classes they didn't accept, but still.
Worst case scenario I think is that they'll only accept 2 courses this semester and I'll have to take a ton of extra courses in the future (and probably pay more) to catch up.
There's also the issue of grades. With our group project flopped out in HS and my LAfilm professor being a bitch, and calculus apparently being deceptively easy until the final according to a lot of people I've talked to, my grades are definitely going to fall--not a lot, but possibly enough to decrease my scholarship?
I am trying not to think about it. But I have to think about all the things I have to prepare, and with *actual school* still going on, it's really overwhelming.
I think I better go do my homework *_*

I'm sorry there's all these other complications though. :/ I hope it all works out in the end, because you deserve to go to your top choice. ♥

Second, *hugs* about all the issues with it :(
I'm sure, though, that everything will end up fine!
