Any college students out there feeling the same?

Old Soul asked:


Gosh, I feel like I’m whining, and I realize there are people out there who have been depressed and have pushed through. I thought I could this year. I picked all these hard classes, thinking I could do it. (I was able to push through last year), but this year it’s almost like I’m all out of fuel. I have been depressed for most of my middle school, high school and now college years, but this is one of the few times when my body and mind just won’t push anymore. I’ve missed SO many classes, the thought of going to classes and having to talk to people gives me nauseous knots in my stomach. My parents are paying for all this, which makes em feel worse because they work hard to get me that money, and I’m messing up.I fee; sick, drained and lost in this place…anyone struggling with anything like this? or struggling with it now? That goes to CSU fort collins? lol it would be nice…wishful thinking
and please not rude answers, no attempts at “tough love” trust me, I’m not a lazy girl.

It’s that time and I’m supposed to be applying for college. I’m excited for college but not so excited to get denied. I blew it, I expect to come out with between 2.4-2.8 GPA. I got a 21 on the ACT however I re-took the it and I feel confident I id much better. The schools I’m going to apply for are CU Boulder, CSU Fort Collins, and as a back up I plan to apply at Colorado Mountain college which is for sure and I honestly wouldn’t mind all that snowboarding. I do also want to apply to a college in Hawaii that offers in state tuition but I o not know much about it. How do all you feel about my chances?? Thanks for the input..
I am in DECA (a business club for my marketing class that travels and competes with students from other school over business type scenarios). Trig is the higghest math I took, and my only other claim to fame would be that I am doing great in Physics this year.

Marie Antoinette asked:


Did it tell you right there on your ramweb that you had been declined admissions?

I have already been accepted, and on my ramweb it said application complete, followed by congratulations… blah blah blah.

My cousin also applied and her application is now complete, and instead of having a decision, it says she will receive hers in the mail within two weeks.

What could this mean? If you were denied admissions did it tell you right there, or is this how your ram web was also?
I’m sorry but instead of saying she will recieve a decision, it says that she will recieve information on the status of her application within two weeks.

Anyone attending Westwood College? How is it?

Jaki asked:


I can’t decide whether to attend CSU Fort Collins or Westwood College in Denver. Those are the only two schools with Interior Design. CSU is much more expensive, but is it worth it. Is a trade school a fine place to go?

Are there any minors out there who went to go to college in Colorado?! What did you do?

i’m a lady asked:


I am from Nebraska and went to college there for a year and a half. Last semester I went to Bogota, Colombia for a break and came back about a month ago.
I decided a while ago that I wanted to finish college in Colorado, but made no steps to toward that until recenty. Yesterday, I went to Fort Collins to figure things out.
To gain residency in most states you need to be there for a year and prove to be self sufficient so I thought that I would move there this summer and start the year process and have to deal with the out-of-state tuition for that year.. Well I came to find out that I either have to at least be 22 and live there for a year to be a resident. I am 20. So i’m still considered a minor..
Is there anyone out there that has a similar sitution with Colorado?? This is crazy! What did you do? Did you get emancipated? That seems to be the best option.

Finding a job in engineering, can I choose the city?

to the beat in my head asked:


My girlfriend(future wife) is planning on going to vet school at Colorado State University in Fort Collins after we have received our bachelor’s degrees, which is in two years. Being separated for four years while she gets her degree seems less than ideal. I know finding a job can be a very competitive process, and if I followed her, I’d be moving to a college city that I’m assuming would favor its own graduates to most outside universities’. Would it be feasible for me to plan on getting a decent job in engineering out there?

note: I should be receiving my bachelor’s degree from Texas Tech University after spring 2009, and I currently have about a 3.5
