Almost Screwed Up...

[unforth]

...but thankfully, things worked out! I finally got around to calling North Bennet Street School yesterday, and they told me that they didn't have any available visiting times until the end of March. So I unleashed my situation - Indiana, two jobs, student, please please please can I come on the 12th or 13th of March pretty please with ice cream and a cherry on top? And they relented! Apparently, though, our spring break corresponds to their spring break, so I won't get to meet the instructor or the students. Bah. Still, better than nothing!

10 AM. Monday the 12th. Boston. Desperately attempting to make a good impression.

Who knows, maybe they'll even accept me the first time I apply. But I'm not counting on it. :)

you will do fine and they'd be stupid not to accept you

It's not that I think I'm gonna screw up real bad, it's that they almost never accept any one on the first try - going to the effort of applying twice is pretty much a prerequisite of getting in, they only have 6 students per year (and about 40 applications) and they don't want to waste those slots on anyone who isn't serious. I've pretty much accepted that waiting a year and applying again is the cost of going to the school...though I'd love it if it didn't have to be that way.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, though. :) Good luck yerself!

*hugs* good luck!! You will do fine :) That sucks about not getting to meet some of the folks...but great that they let you come over spring break!!

Keeping fingers crossed for you... (and when I get back we should totally set up some more TV nights when you have time!)
