you can only pick one school for each rank. you don't apply for each school separately, you do it all at the same time, so the 3 schools you choose have to be ranked your first choice, second choice and third choice. does that make sense?

oooh ok. wow, i didn't know that you applied for each school at the same time. damn, that would make things SO much easier. filling out applications SUCK, plus the $30 fees.

The housing lottery is only for second years and above. For first years it's the same as before.

I've eaten the caf food for a year and a half and I'm still alive. And as I said Vanier's caf has been redone. According to some it's "like walking into Earls in your pjs".

Also, we're rather close to Whistler. You can get relatively cheap season passes through the ski and board club.

I applied to NYU, USC, Columbia College (in Chicago), and U of M. I wanted to apply to a school in Toronto, but I couldn't find any with the program I'm looking for.

oh man. i'm so applying to UBC.
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

It is... but I got lucky and had high enough SAT scores to pay for half of my tuition. Also, I don't have to pay room and board considering I already live here.

I'm seriously thinking about going for English. What schools in Ontario are best for such a major? I've heard Carlton, but that's about it.

Without you I'm as good as

I wish it was that way in the US. Then you'd only have to pay the fee once. Dang. Well I am at Weber State University right now (it's fairly small, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone buy a nurse) and I am transfering to Brigham Young University next fall. That is...if I get accepted. Then I'm going to University of Utah if I don't get let in there. I have applied four times to that stupid school.
