MIT? Well good luck with that one too! Yeah I know college is expensive. I pay like 1,815 for tuition and that's cheap! That's not counting the money for books, supplies and gas that it takes me to go to school. So get scholarships as SOON as you can.

Yeah...-sigh-
MIT tuition-only is 37k a year.
-tips over-
I'm trying to figure out if purchasing/renting a house there beforehand to have the in-state discount is worth it...
XD I'd better wait until I know if I'll actually be accepted or not.

Hey guys...yeah, I've been trying to figure how I'm going to get my money for university. I've been working my bum off for the last two summer breaks but it's really not that much money when you're breaking your back for minumum wage... stare sucks balls. I'm gonna have to figure something out, because my marks right now aren't going to get me any major scholarships. *crosses fingers* Maybe a miracle will happen. xd

 Ooch. Have you considered taking out a student loan? Are you maybe a good artist? Or a planner? Consider maybe internships of what you're interested in, too.

Yeah, I really should. Well, I go to an Arts high school, so apparently that automatically puts me ahead of other people, but I find that really hard to believe...
I know you guys have GPA in the US; do you also have "real" marks like actual percentages?

Lol, yes. GPAs can't be trusted, anyways. some schools weight, some schools just have different scales... But generally 94%-100% is A, or 4.0. 90%- 93% is A-, or 3.7. And it continues down. what's the system in Canada?

Oh, that's good. (: Lucky XD Sadly, most tuitions are a lot more than 2000 a year -___- It's depressing. I think they want to put us in debt. It's not as if they need all that money, anyways.

x.x; They're all leeches.
I've read most of the series, but I don't like the TV show much.
Actually, to be honest, I don't like the book series that much either XD
It's pretty amusing, though.

Hello! I'm a new Ravenclaw.
My greatest strength is language and (fiction) writing.
What makes me happy in life? Well, that would have to be life because without it there would be nothing to be happy-- or any emotion-- about.
