College applications, how stressful!! November 1st was the deadline that pretty much all college applications were due on. I just want to say that doing applications was probably one of the most important things I have ever done in my entire life (and the most stressful).
I applied to all out of state colleges, all the way across the country. My parents have encouraged me since I was young to try new things and go to college away from home. I am super excited and nervous to hear back from all the colleges I applied to.
Even though I have not been accepted to any institutions yet, I have a bit of advice for any people applying or getting ready to apply for college; do not procrastinate. It is so important to get started early and follow through with. I would not have taken my advice so seriously if my parents were not always on my butt. They really pushed me along and kept me going. I am forever indebted to them. Without their constant pressure I would have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off.
The application process has been such a test of organization and willpower. All my applications were completed and turned in on time, so now all I have to do is wait. Next fall I will start a brand new journey at a brand new school. It will be an incredible experience. I know that all those long days and late nights I spent working on my application will pay off. All I have to do now is wait for the oodles of acceptance letters to come rolling in (JK).
Good Luck!
