    Class of 2020

    Just for a thought, no one will care if you were accepted 1st or 1200th. I got to the point where I thought for sure I wasn't getting in and then I got a call. Waiting sucks but it's worth it. Enjoy senior year but keep in mind your goals in all your choices.

    One year ago...
