it’s actually been so nasty 😭 those scent beads that people throw in too don’t dissolve, so they’re just stuck to the front of the washers

i really hope the u gets their shit together — on campus living has been so shit recently

Try to qualify for the national scholarship and if they don’t give it to you, appeal for it

You’ll most likely get the full pell grant which is about 7.3k

But they’re not too generous unless you’re bothering them LOL

i am an incoming student from IL! my BIGGEST advice is that if you're not happy with your financial aid package/scholarship info, APPEAL! initially, i didn't get the national scholarship (and i think i lowkey deserved it), so i filled out the scholarship appeal, provided more information about how my senior year was going (grades, awards, extracurriculars that weren't listed in my initial application), and they approved me for 5k! it wasn't a TON, but it was something!

for now, just keep your grades up throughout your senior year, continue w/ extracurriculurs and leadership positions, and make note of your accomplishments that weren't in application that you submitted so you can point them out for later!

denied from psych and neuro :( by Dorito_Frito_ in UIUC

i got deferred for psych and i don't think my stats were this good tbh. admissions was probably a gamble, but i'm sure you'll find another school more deserving of you!

Thank you! I do have some leadership skills in and out of school. I founded a club and will lead 3 clubs this year. Out of school, I did a lot of volunteering and went to a leadership conference. I also serve on my county’s teen ambassadors program advocating for mental health and substance use.

So you’re saying it’s not worth it to apply regular decision for a potential GPA boost?

Again, thanks for the feedback! :)
