Oh, College!

Dear Butler University,

Your campus is like a dream to me, you are in a big city with a pretty good music scene, and you accepted me (surprisingly). I fear, though, that you are much too expensive for an undergraduate degree. I'm sorry and thank you for the generous offer. I will probably always wonder "What if...?"

- Accepted But Not Attending Student

Dear E.W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University,

Sweet Christ. I can hardly believe I was accepted into your program. I didn't even know I was in the top 15% of my class...but I'll take your word for it. The only thing I'm a bit irritated by is your location: that close to West Virginia? Seriously? If I have to hear not-really-Southern accents and poor grammar for four years straight, I might not make it to my senior year of college.

But thanks. I'm 99% sure I'll be seeing you come autumn.

- Yes Please!

Dear Kent State,

I'm sorry. You were my backup's backup.

- Me

med school

I got accepted to Harvard med school but didn't have the money to go. I've regretted every minute of that decision thinking I could have or should have the money to go somehow. It was my dream since a child. It crushed me so badly, I never went to med school. I'm sorry you will wonder What if? I do, every day. Congrats on college.

Did you check out our scholarships? We'd sure love to have you at Butler. :(

Brad, BU Admission

Re: :(

Whoa! What are the odds that someone from Butler (specifically someone from Butler Admissions) should stumble upon my letter?

I checked out the scholarships and the few I haven't missed deadlines for...I don't exactly fit the criteria.

But I'm not totally forgetting about Butler. I still kind of hope to go there.

Re: :(

thats a total sign, man, talk to this guy, i'm sure he can help you find the money you need. Don't go on with the What if?. See what Brad has to offer. I've learned now, too late, that there was money out there, but I was young and my parents weren't willing to help.
