University!

**Alexanderofmacedon** · 11-06-2008, 23:03

Well I've sent in all applications for university next year and I've started getting acceptance. Just got accepted to DePaul University with a $38,000 academic scholarship (4 years) so I'm feeling pretty good!

Who would have thought I'd go to Uni?

Where are other .Org members attending for Uni these days?

Fight, Raiders, Fight! Fight, Raiders, Fight!
Fight for the school we love so dearly.
We'll hit'em high, we'll hit'em low.
We'll push the ball across the goal,
Tech, Fight! Fight!
We'll praise your name, boost you to fame.
Fight for the Scarlet and Black
We will hit'em, we will wreck'em.
Hit'em! Wreck'em, Texas Tech!
And the Victory Bells will ring out.

My UNI is the ultimate pun.

EDIT: Congrats on the Depaul thing. Depaul was on my top three list when I was deciding, but, alas, I did not get the scholarships I needed to justify the expense in comparison to my current school.

Nice. Uni's a lot of fun.

Was in this one in Oporto last year, this year I'm in Lisboa.

Congratulations, Alexanderofmacedon! I hope you enjoy DePaul.

Heh.

How are things down in Cedar Falls, anyway?

I goto a university in Caerleon, South Wales, on an access course to get onto a degree....

Congratulations on the scholarship! Is that for all your expenses, or just university related ?

**Alexanderofmacedon** · 11-07-2008, 03:17

Well I haven't made up my mind 100%, but if I decide to attend DePaul, that money would be strictly tuition costs. Other expenses will be considerably more...

...US Uni system is a lot different.

In terms of the University aspect- I couldn't be happier with my choice.

Hey, it could be worse. It could be Decorah. (And I would know.)

Anyone go to or thinking of going to the University of St. Andrews in Scottland?

**Craterus** · 11-19-2008, 00:17

I applied.

**Caius** · 11-19-2008, 00:25

I applied for the UTN (National Technical University).

And I'm lucky considering that I have to pay the admitting course and nothing more. That costed me 200 pesos, something like 66 dollars. The UTN is the most important University of engineers in the country. I'm currently going to the admitting course which is nivelatory once per 15 days, and the travel is damn worth.

In conclusion, I go to University, spend half day out home and if everything goes ok with HS (you can't enter Uni unless you failed some subject and didn't take the exam in december or march) I will be entering University in March next year.

I will be alone. Freedom not wanted, but got it.
