So far, this application process has come with plenty of good news. However, it has been my experience that good news is always followed by just slightly more bad news. So I shall create a good news sandwich (sandwiched by bad news...):
I will not be receiving the Gilman Scholarship. This is kind of embarrassing news too because it was announced to me by study abroad adviser that last term 9 of the 12 PSU students to apply received the Gilman. There is also an incredibly competitive girl who likes to ask if I got my scholarships. Perhaps it is pure interest and friendliness. But I can't help help but doubt she is without her own motivations.
I got my official acceptance letter from Yonsei! So as long as I do not blow this term and send them transcripts with a bunch of failing grades, I will be attending South Korea's second best university! (I don't want to hear any of this "tied with Korea University" shit. This is my good news damn it! I will be going off this list [ http://studykorea.learnhub.com/lesson/18716-top-10-universities-in-south-korea ]), thank you very much!
My acceptance packet will not come until some time next month and I cannot apply for my visa until I get this packet. So more waiting!
