Whew! Collective Common Ap sigh....

[Beebalm]

My dd finally got everything (please, Lord, everything) into the Common AP on Saturday. I have been SO stressed out over this. Thanks so much to all who helped us along....Kareni and others. You are a special blessing.

 

Once again, we bit off more than we could comfortably chew and have been scrambling to try to do everything correctly. I never learn. :tongue_smilie:

 

Thanks again for all your help.

Now the waiting begins...

 

Prayers to you and yours for peace throughout the process. I'm looking forward to hearing news from all of you whose dc have put in college apps this fall.

 

Best wishes,

Brenda

It's a good feeling to have that work behind you, isn't it? Go celebrate!

I know how you feel. We did the state school apps first, and then tackled the common app over a weekend. I actually completed the address, etc stuff while my lil one was doing math next to me. Then my son finished the extra curricular stuff, etc. He is in public school now and the first thing his AP lit/comp class did was common app essays, so we had that already on the desktop. His teachers have already submitted his recs so it will now be a wait and see game (money).

 

He did get nearly 1/2 costs covered with the first state school that admitted him. The money offer came with the admission acceptance letter : ) That was thrilling for all of us and surprising. Now we complete a few additional scholarship forms for each private school, and one for a state school ...... and wait!

 

Good luck! Boy, I really need a year or two before I do this again!!!!
