Applying To Colleges

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

I have a friend who went to WVU. What are you thinking of doing there?

I applied to Massachusetts, Rutgers, Connecticut, Vassar, Bishop's, and Williams. I got into all but Rutgers, which gave me a deferment, and now I'm studying Japanese Literature at UMass. I love it.

You got into Williams but not Rutgers? That alone proves how much of a crapshoot this process is.

Yeah, that's... bizarre.

That was exactly my thought when it happened.

I'm not sure how WVU is for polisci. My friend who went there majored in developmental psychology and is now an elementary school teacher.

I decided West Virginia University is the place for me Can't wait to be a Mountaineer!

Good luck! As somebody from the northern end of it, the Appalachian Chain can be a really fun place to live in general, no matter what anyone else says.
