Super Long Hiatus~~NYU STERN 2021

I haven't posted in forever because I have just been so busy with first semester senior year. Just balancing school work and extracurriculars along with college application was extremely stressful. Now that that's over, I can get back to spending time on things that I enjoy, like blogging!

As I already mentioned in the title, I'm super excited to announce that I'll be attending NYU Stern School of Business in the fall!

Decisions came out on February 15th at 5PM, but I waited a little to open my portal. Once I was on, I gathered that I was accepted before I opened my letter because there was an accepted/decline option. The preceding week dragged with anticipation, and I was filled with jitters when decision day finally rolled around the corner. I've been relaxing (but not too much--can't let senioritis overtake me) now that I've been accepted to college. It's a wonderful feeling knowing where I'll be next year and not having to worry about anymore about the admissions process anymore: standardized testing, GPA, extracurriculars, essays, letter of recommendations, applications fees, interviews. It is--was--a lot.

Ultimately, it's manageable, and the results are forever rewarding.

Once I got accepted, I toured NYU about a month later on March 17th. I visited Washington Square Park, the Kimmel Center, Weinsten Hall, Bobst, and Stern. Bobst was absolutely beautiful; I can imagine myself spending a lot of time there already. After the tour, I went to the bookstore to purchase a Stern sweatshirt, which I am sporting all the time now (go school pride!).
