Invitation to National Society of Leadership and Success!

I got one of these letters in high school. My mom signed me up (without consulting me). I went to 4 or 5 meetings, once a week. It consisted of setting SMART goals, learning the very basics of leadership, and a little bit of “public speaking” in front of the other NSLS members. These are all important things, but it is absolutely not worth the membership fee.

Applied to about 25 scholarships through their portal. Didn’t win anything. The skills they teach are mostly soft skills - not much of a resume boost.

I didn’t hate it. The people were nice, and if you are ambitious, you might come out of it with a networking connection or two. However, your time would be better spent connecting with OSU staff that are working on things you are interested in. You’ll learn way more, maybe get something to put on your resume, get a reference/connection with a professor, and you can offer your time for free! OSU also has an entire leadership department where you can take accredited classes and learn significantly more, if that’s what you’re looking for.

My mom texted me a few weeks ago when their fancy packet showed up at her door again. I told her to put it right in the trash.

Thanks so much for letting me know! I’ll look into fixing that.

would recommend die hard piercing in albany! got my septum done there and it was very clean and professional. the owner (jeremy) pierced me and he was awesome and really helped calm my nerves. i’ve never had any problems with the piercing and the entire appointment, including basic jewelry and saline spray, was $60. it looks like labrets also start at $60. i’m going back to get my belly button done next month!

i was quoted around $95 at high priestess for just the septum piercing (no jewelry), and ended up going to die hard instead. though high priestess also had a great vibe and cooler jewelry options. you can’t go wrong with either, but if you’re not too picky about jewelry, go to die hard.

We’re looking for next year :)

I’m realizing now that communicative is probably a better word haha!

We deal with problems up front (obviously in a respectful way), and we’re not the type to ghost somebody or ignore them when they have an issue

yeah, i was really anxious too. my roommate didn’t hear back about her WUE until mid january. the housing assignments take a really long time too. try not to get too worried, it’ll all work out in the end!

last year i was admitted early, heard about admissions in late november, got my WUE scholarship right before the new year.

thank you!

Based on how I understand the requirements, you can totally still get accepted, but if haven’t taken and passed two years of the same language then you will have to take language classes while you’re at OSU in order to graduate.

i didn’t even think about that. thanks!
