You won't be getting them anymore, if you got them, it was in September & October, with you probably getting reminders the last couple weeks.

Never wrote an essay either. Only filled out free applications, haha.
I finally declared both a Political Science and History major last week with a minor in English.

Got into Drexel. They're giving me $11,500 a year.
Just out of curiosity, how many schools did you guys all apply to/are planning to apply to?

Yeah, I'm applying to 10, which most of my friends think is an exorbitant amount, but I want to give myself as many options as possible, especially financially with the way the economy is and all.

Haha, fuck them. It is so smart to apply to a ton of schools. So much of the college process is a crapshoot. You'll get into schools you didn't think you would get into, and you'll get rejected from schools you didn't think twice about getting rejected from. Apply to as many as you can financially, and maybe you get lucky and end up somewhere amazing. It's totally worth it to me.

I already received a surprise with the full scholarship from St. John's, and I didn't even plan on applying there, just figured I would for kicks since my uncle teachers there.

I'm not. I'm pretty smart, but Drexel & St. John's are below my caliber, hence the money.
