Hey! I got into Howard--got my acceptance letter last month! But, I'm a little nervous about going to Howard. For one, FAFSA is only giving me $30,500 in LOANS to go -.- but, I'm also nervous that I'm not going to fit in at Howard. I have the capacity to be the center of attention, but I'm mostly shy, chubby, tomboyish, studious, and although there are SOME days where I dress really well, I bum out. I have a feeling that I could do very well at Howard--I have extensive leadership in community service and I'm really liberal, creative, active, bubbly, sweet, and intelligent and even a little talky when I'm allowed to be--but, I don't know. I'm scared that I won't fit in since I don't fit in at my high school. I don't fit in with blacks or whites :/ You guys think I'll fit in? And also, I got a 1620 on the SATs, a 3.5 UW GPA, and I plan to major in history (and maybe minor in sociology) and then go on to law school. Thanks for your time, you guys

Nah stress. You will fit in - just be yourself and those who like you will be gravitated towards you. Given your genius - you can also meet people by tutoring them.
