First, I would like to say: CONGRATS LADIES!!!!!
You girls don't know how big of a blessing this is. I applied Early Notification and I received my letter this Friday saying that I was wait-listed. Since Spelman is the ONLY college I would really like to attend, I agreed to be placed on their wait-list. This is why I say that you ladies are BLESSED!!!There are MANY girls, myself being one of them, who are DYING to be in your shoes right now. So please don't take this opportunity lightly!!
As for me, I'm not looking for any sympathy because I KNOW GOD has a plan for me. And somewhere in HIS plans, is Spelman. Though I won't be at Spelbound, I will see all of you ladies at the top, Spelman!!!!
Thanks Diva 09! and yeah girl you just keep your faith in God because he will see you through just as he did for me. I am blessed to have gotten accepted but now I am really torn becasue the of the cost, I know God is going to make a way for me to go to school but I don't want to send in my $300 in then find out I can't go. On top of that the $ for Haoward and Hampton is due the first 2. I don't think they are going to be that nice with the money and all and I can only hope for scholarships and grants. I wish this wasn't so hard because I would **** to go. So right now I'm just going to wait for the financial Aid packet and keep praying and trusting God, beacuse I know that if I do my part he will do his. But quick question how does the wait listing thing work? I'll be praying for the both of us!
I'll pray for you diva_09 and MariaBR. We all want to see each other on top(Spelman). I am so happy that god has blessed me with this. Spelman was the only college that I wanted to attend. I can't wait until August 15, 2009. We will hopefully all be Spelman's Class of 2013.
Thanks Ladies!!!! It's really appreciated.
@ MariaBR- A small number of applicants are placed on Spelman's waitlist and if someone who was offered admission chooses not to attend, then they'll notify us sometime around mid-June. Hopefully I'll know before then, but anything I hear will be after May 1st.
Yeah, it's like we're now stressing over the money and there's still ppl stressing to get in...
I wish everybody the best though...
I was talking to my cousin who is just like my sister, and we were basically talking about the money issue..
and with the calmest face someone could ever have she said, "just do it."
She was looking at me like what's the big deal, because I will be just like the majority of the other girls at Spelman; struggling.
She also told me that the experience was worth it...
but just pray I get a good job after college to pay for all of those student loans! lol
-roommate hunting!!!-
Thanks yall I appreciate your prayers and will do so for you as well. I'm going to stop worrying about it and just believe and trust God because he is the only way any of us will make it through on time. No more worries just faith!
