Day 190-Admissions Counselors

Hey guys,

      So, do you remember the immense stress of college visits and applications Junior Year? Well, for me, those wonderful stressors have lasted a very long, VERY exhausting almost 3 years. As I am approaching the end(FINALLY), of this season of life for me, I am finding myself unmotivated to continue sending applications, going to visits, and stuff like that, mainly because it's just exhausting. It drives me crazy to constantly have those stressors and the reality that I've started applying to 3 different colleges, and finished 1, as it would anyone. Anyways, I got a call from my admissions counselor from Columbia International this afternoon, and she was so encouraging. She told me that she was PRAYING for me, that I could have the self-discipline and ENDURANCE to finish this season of my life with my best foot forward. Admissions counselors have always(in my mind), been some of the most personable, friendly, and just plain CARING people I've ever met. I realize that a lot of that is just because they want you to go to their college rather than that other one, but today, it seemed like she really cared about ME. She was asking how my day was going, how my weekend had been, how I was liking my classes, she genuinely CARED, and I am so grateful for that!

<3 Always,
Rose
