It's been pretty unfavorable TOWARDS ME!!!!! lol. Just kidding. It's really just the T14 being hard to break into for me. T15-T25 has been very receptive lol.
URM cycles are so weird sometimes. I see URMs with very pedestrian numbers that absolutely crush it and then there are ones that don't seem like they got much of a boost.
yeah, I agree. Like I said, T15-25 are showing me love and it's nice but T14s are more like "Meh" or "No" or "Yeah, okay, if you're willing to foot this bill yourself [I'm not]"
I want to agree with what y'all are saying but I have some great acceptances but only one school that I haven't already decided against has given me final FinAid and it is not a good amount. 288k upon repayment is a cruel consideration IMO.
MAYBE IF I COULD GET SOME $$$ I'd be less PISSED/Anxious/perpetually nauseated.
Yeah, when I'm saying these things, I'm including the money consideration in whether or not my cycle is going well lol
