Okay, went to ATLANTAAA for the weekend. . . Actually it was a last minute decision because I had quit planning on going, then I got a text message that said "pack yo bags" and this was at 9 at night and we were scheduled to leave at 4 that morning. . . lol, long story short, i packed my bags and went with my best friend and her parents. . . Anyways Her plans was to visit Spelman for the first time, which I had already did this past summer so I was just going to soak in more information. . . So did first thing we did when we got off the interstate (besides eat) was went to SPELMANNNNN...and guess what?! It was fridayyy, and you know what that means "market friday". . .haha The tour was really cool, once again, the girl was really cool and nice and she just took us which was one family, meaning we got to get really close to her. . . I think I liked this tour better because school was actually in session, so we got to see all of the students on their way to classes and what not and everybody was extra friendly. . . Girls walking to class with just anything on, I mean short SHORTTTT skirts and shorts, cheeks justa hangin' out...lawdhammercy. . . lol, but me and my buddy decided we wanted to stay for market friday because all of the vendors was out and the music was playing and it was really just poppin'. Needless to say the Morehouse Brothers came over and we got to see the DELTAAAS , and the skeeweers (aka's), zetas, kappas, q's, and just all of them strolling. . .it was really fun and made me do nothing but want to be there even more! Of course being from Tennessee we went to the Atlanta Classic game(FAMU vs TN State) and we went to the parade which showcased both bands and a lot of Atlanta High School bands. . . ummm, TN lost the game . . . we chilled on Peachtree. . . ummm, the underground. . . I love Atlanta. . . Needless to say after this essay, the AUC is "where its at" it's the place to be if you're black point.blank.period.

Wait, you mean to tell me that SPELMAN COLLEGE allows the student to get their whole application package together (transcript, rec, and all) without contacting a counselor?. . . hmmm, it's good that they trust the student like that. . .

okay, i was planning to take the ACT in Oct. and Dec. do I choose where i want my Oct. scores sent now or do i wait until my Dec. scores are available online and send the highest score.......im not sure which would be better oh yeah in trying to make SC's Feb 1st deadline

jeressia wrote:

that's another thing! the lady said if you feel like the score you have now is so low it'll make u get denied (despite all your other info) u should wait until they get your new scores. so if the new scores don't come in b4 the nov 15 deadline, you need to WAIT! she said as soon as they get all your stuff and your fee, they'll review. so if you send in all your stuff (w/ an old ACT score) and then you pay. They'll use the score they have! do yall think the oct. 25th score will be sent by the 15th?!!

People knew that we didn't go there and that we were on a visit, so some people would just stop by and ask us were we doing a campus visit and of course we said yeah and they just started really encouraging us to come there. . .it was really cool. lol @ the underground. . .its a dudes heaven in there. . .lol, pretty girls everywhere in the AUC. . .
