School Update!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now don't get TOO excited.....we're not announcing any hardcore news just yet. I thought I would give you an update on how the application process is coming.

So far all three schools have told me they have my application.Philadelphia sent me an old fashioned letter saying they have it and will review everything and be in touch. They did send a nifty school catalog too.....

Boston sent me an e-mail that was basically a round about way of saying my admissions test scores weren't good enough. But hey, they did it nicely...kind of like when someone asks "are you really going to wear THAT?" they did say my file was "exceptional".....

Chicago was the last to tell me they have it and, after preliminary review, have deemed me "worthy" to fill out their surprise supplemental application and pay them another $50. Yay! Then after I turn that in, they'll review that and then 4-6 weeks later tell me if they want anything more or if i can schedule an interview. The optometrist I work for now calls it "jumping through hoops" which is what it kind of feels like!

So there we go! Hopefully we'll have some kind of idea by Christmas!
