Is tuition as high as Ithaca and the rest? I think housing's apartments, but I could be wrong. My sister got into law school there but turned it down because of costs and housing. Fordham costs about 35k, Ithaca costs about 30. Not including R&B and other shit. Chances are, I go wherever offers me the most financial aid/scholarships/grants, etc. cause my dad really can't afford to pay these ridiculous sums of money, and with the economy going down the toilet, I don't want to be paying a lot. Yeah, that's why I go to public school. Would've had a tough time paying for Cuse anyway. You should look at a few public schools, imo, if you're worried about cost, though private schools do give bigger scholarships. My year costs 20k and I'm out of state. In-state is like 15. Best value education in the nation, yeeeee!

I thought Ithaca was one of the more expensive colleges. Guess not.

Blue how long was your essay? I managed to churn out a 5 paragraph essay that filled out every single line provided. I think 3 paragraphs... I'm not a terrible writer, but I'm pretty slow when it comes to collecting my thoughts. It filled up to about half of the second page.

Aaron, you got a 2070. We've had this argument on the forums before.

For the record, I got a 12 on the essay three times.

Nope, none. BTW, I hadn't sent my grades into Bing yet. Sucks. Oh well, their deadline is June 30 so it makes no difference, and I should hear from Fordham/GW this week.

Katie said all of her schools delayed their notifications until June.

Why? That's weird. I know of a bunch of schools that have sent back already.

Brittany Cohan, the girl from Darien who is good friends with Colleen, to the first three and Stiffleman to Yale. Brittany wants to go to Georgetown though. Applied to GW too, whore.

I thought Ithaca was one of the more expensive colleges. Guess not. colby.edu/admissions_cs/financial_aid/?clear=y$50,120 annually for 08-09 at my Alma Mater. I graduated 9 years ago, and it was around 35K then......so basically it's jumping about 5% every year. Looks like my daughter will be hitting the local Community Colleges in 2024.

Wake has a program where you can get in like July 1st before senior year if your SAT/Grades are absurd, and she didn't want to worry about college as a senior. Plus, she got arrested, either before or after, not sure, but if it was before that'd have played a role because she didn't want to risk the top schools rejecting her because of her arrest. It was for a party.
She's transferring because she hates it.

So Pig & Mark are both transferring?
Ithaca's not that expensive, and if it wasn't for the distance thing(its about 5 hours away), it'd be far and away my #1 choice.

Yeah, pretty sure she is a 1500+ SAT girl with ridiculous AP grades at DHS. I read her essay for Georgetown, it was pretty ridiculous.
