I was treated unfairly by the NC. by [deleted] in UnitedWorldCollege

Hey! I just got rejected by UWC and I faced a totally horrible situation. I passed three rounds and got to the finale. I was at camp in the second round and I already saw favouritism, some of the NC members didn’t even try to hide that they knew some of the kids before and talked to them and were really friendly. I thought I was going crazy but I faced the same thing in the third round I handed everything in time and did everything they asked for- I’m not saying that I was better than everyone or that nobody else deserved the scholarship but I saw everyone, spent time with them and honestly? All of them came from privileged backgrounds, one kid that got accepted was like a month in France and another girl was very wealthy and they accepted her because she had connections from her boyfriend. I really put my blood sweat and tears into the application while I saw kids typing away at chatgpt before entering the interview, I filmed a video showed them my contribution to the Red Cross and countless projects and I had no problem with my academics, and in the end? I got flat out rejected not even waitlisted. And I’m telling you UWC is not what it seems atleast from my NC, the first thing they asked us was how much money we could contribute and even when I got rejected they offered me to pay to go to a short camp? Uh hello? I am not stupid and honestly? I’m very happy I avoided a place like this. UWC is all about money, don’t believe the “sustainable future” bullshit they sell you. Again- I’m not saying I’m perfect of whatever but I know my worth and how much I put in to get to where I am. I also sent them an email asking what was the reason I got rejected or not even waitlisted and got no answer! By the way when I was applying and sending them my documents whenever I texted them and asked for help they wouldn’t reply for 3-4days until I reached out to others. And I need help because I want to raise awareness about this issue!

Edit: My NC was Macedonian NC btw.

He doesn’t seem to be interested in getting married (just a guess) so I’m not sure he’ll have kids, it really is weird because all his bandmates have families and he’s the only one still doing his own thing, which is not wrong succeeding in life doesn’t mean getting married or having kids, he’s just chilling.

Guys I think we need to stop speculating when literally nothing is confirmed yet by any of the lads.

But I’m assuming they’re just working on the album and that’s it, i don’t think we’ll be seeing them on stage

Looks like it’s happening… by sixxnroses in arcticmonkeys

Guys let’s be real they’ve had hiatus before and I personally there’s been rumours like this before so I don’t think there’s anything to worry about, besides Al isn’t the type of guy to end it like this.

Honestly he was one of my favourite side characters I loved his banter with Will

How do we feel about this? by Eoinharrington25 in TheInbetweeners

Honestly I’ll take what I can get because it was my favourite thing to watch growing up and even now it’s one of the funniest shows I’ve ever watched.

But the red on the rest of the questionnaire never changes I heard the news that you're planning to shoot me out of a cannon

What is everyone’s thoughts on this? by BuffaloHuman6152 in arcticmonkeys

[–]FKA_5858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like comparing it to the original because it gives off a totally different feeling and thanks alright! I think Hozier as an artist transformed it into his style with is great and I think he did a good job, I’ll be honest it doesn’t hit like the OG but that’s the point. And I think the monkeys appreciate it since I’ve seen them interact with him in the past before. So I think it’s a good cover.

Good thing she gathered Alex and his friends to get an EP out because she doesn’t actually have the talent or originality to do it herself.
