Got the letter of acceptance and welcoming stuff. Paid my first fee. Gotta get this ball rolling next week really quick for sure. I'll be out of town for mid-next week and a few days after too.

What the hell is going on here? Sure college is the right choice for you? I don't even know what you are talking about and you've made 5 posts already.

But I just got in.

I plan to frame my rejection letter with my acceptance letter with my diploma. How badass does that sound? :cool:

if a school rejected you why would you even want to go there. i was rejected at some universities when i applied to college and grad school and now i wouldnt attend those schools or take a job there if they paid me to.

As a product of UW, I say being accepted to UW is not something to brag about.

That's a ridiculous idea. IF (and that's a big if) you end up graduating, why the fuck do you give a shit about some stupid acceptance or rejection letter when you have a diploma?

If MIT rejects you, why would you want to go there? 'cause you know, there's no value in that school.

Best public school in the state of WA is UW. (And it's free for me)

but that's because these people don't know that U of Washington = UDub

not in big ten land it doesnt.

UW Madison is superior in most ways anyways(IE sports, duh :p)

I just checked and their overall rankings on USN(even though they are BS rankings) is almost the same (WA 41 WI45)

I have no idea how they come to those stupid ranking decisions.

Does not compute.

Tuition is waived. That makes up most of the expense. I have to pay some fees still unfortunately.

I/My parents do. They pay for my books and school fees, which is nice. (They can afford it now)
