I would be in college but I took a semester off to play in a rock band. I'll most likely be there for the second semester in febuary however. It is Bennington College in Bennington, Vermont.

Im Sophomore in Highschool, so I got a few years left.

But Im pretty excited about college, I think its going to be great. Ive already got a full paid scholarship, so Im not worried about money. Im just going to have a great time living on campus and being on my own.

My scholarship is for four years at the University of Kentucky. Wildcats!

You're a sophomore and you have a 4-year scholarship already? How did you pull that off?

I'm at Swarthmore. It's in Pennsylvania, and no, it's not an all girls school (some people seem to confuse it with Skidmore all the time).

And it's one of the top 20 most selective schools in the country.

Ive actually had the scholarship sense the 8th grade.

It is called the "Robinson Scholarship". They offer it to 8th graders at like 30 countys in Eastern Kentucky. They choose one student from each county. I had to write this essay and get teacher recommendations, and then they chose three students. We each had to go to an interview. After that, they sent us a letter telling who had won the scholarship.

So yeah. Thats how it happened. It pays for housing, books, tuition, heck, if I need clothes they even buy that for me. Its a great program. When I found out I had been chosen, it was probably the single happiest day of my life.

I'm in College but I've got a full ride through the army.. well it's not really a full ride I've got 75% tuition assistance through the army national guard. And then I have depending on credit hours I have money if I only take 9 credit hours I get 212 per month and if I take full time 12 to 13 hrs I get 312 per month.. Either way.. It works for me.

I'm not in College right now, but in less than 2 years I'll be going to University Of Ontario: Institute Of Technology (located in Oshawa, Ontario) for a Bachelor's Degree (I think, it's 4 years anyway) in Nuclear Engineering.

I'm majoring in psychology at "Concordia University College of Alberta" (It's one of those little private religious college places; only like 3 000 students or something), but next year I'm gonna go to the University of Alberta and do my pre-professional year for the School of Business there.

And the education goes on and on and on...

I'm a Junior at Truman State University in Kirksville, MO. I'm studying to be a French teacher.

Perfect Stu · 11-19-2003, 05:36 PM

Not yet...it looks like I'll be at some local College next fall, and then either after one semester or two, I'll probably be picking from some US Universities on a football scholarship.

Damn, Vampyr, you must be a smart guy.

Nice job.

I'm a sophomore at Tulane University in New Orleans (incredible city for college). Studying Electrical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science.

The engineering student body here (which is a small part of the university) is kinda odd. You get a huge majority of guys, of course, about half nerdy types and the other half more regular (but they're all cool). Then although there are only a few girls compared to guys, nearly all of the girls are extremely hot. Thought it weird..

Friendly college advice for those soon to go: go out as much as you can, stay up late, meet as many people as you can, and have as much fun as you can. Have a blast every night you can. Then get your ass up for class every day and take notes. Have fun, but don't flake out: wasting a few thousand dollars because you were hungover or just lazy is about as loser as it gets.

And as with any college advice, take that with a grain of salt. I mean, what the hell do I know?
