Last week I was accepted to Gibbs College (Katherine Gibbs in case anyone is confused). I am going for Executive Administration (or Assistant). Yesterday I met with someone in financial aid, and after 1 hour, I left knowing that I had a free ride my first year there. Most of the financial aid is in the form of loans, but that is okay. When I can I plan to make a couple payments during the school year so I am not paying as much when I finish. One of the loans I received was called the Signature Loan, a credit check is performed to determine whether or not a student will get it. I was told at the end of the meeting that I am the first student in several years to receive the Signature Loan, no one else had received it for a long time in that school.

So when October comes, all I will have to worry about are my work schedule and getting to classes and getting my school work done. This is the first time, that I can remember of, that I am actually excited to be going to school.
