next essay I write is gonna be an analysis of FHJY and how Kipperlilly's viewpoint and perception parallels what students are taught to value and emphasize when it comes to the college admissions process and writing college essays (aka trauma is a golden ticket)

Hello lovely bitches! I need some advice 🥲
Basically, the FAFSA fucked me over. They didn’t fix their algorithm to account for modern poverty and inflation, and I’m currently ineligible for Pell. This is an issue because—spoiler alert—I’m poor! I am financially eligible for Pell! I’m contacting FAFSA and my local senators about this really grave computer error.
Is there anything I can do financially to help save money in this time? Or at least anything I can do to freak out less 😅
Darling, we are SO PROUD OF YOU for contacting your reps and the FAFSA people. That is exactly what you should be doing, and it's not easy so good on ya. Let us know how it goes.
Other than that, this is everything we know about paying for school:
How To Pay for College Without Selling Your Soul to the Devil
Also, the comments are open if anyone else has ideas!
Did we just help you out? Tip us!

Affirmative action was never about picking a black person for a college based on just being black. It doesn't "take a spot" from deserving white people.
It acknowledges that unconscious bias will lead people to overwhelmingly discount POC candidates who are more than qualified. Their race is used to color all their accomplishments, and usually negatively. Also that race and racism affect how much access to a good education they have. Affirmative action attempted to negate that bias and allow access to POC who Are qualified and deserve a spot.
Meanwhile, without affirmative action, more of the most pathetic white boy rich kids will get into Harvard and totally think it was because they just worked really hard.
Fuck the Supreme Court

Sharing the Personal Statement that got me into my master’s at Oxford
This is a copy of the Personal Statement I submitted to get into my master’s at the University of Oxford in England. Yes, I got accepted into my dream master’s programme and preferred college at Oxford. No, I will not be attending Oxford in the fall despite receiving an offer for a variety of financial reasons. I recently took up a funded master’s offer elsewhere.
I’m sharing my Personal Statement as a sample for any of you younglings hoping to study at Oxford if you want an idea of what they may be looking for in the Humanities Division for graduate admission. Online resources were a great free help for me during my own application process. Do not plagiarize my shit—they’ll know. Shout out to @amchara for giving me feedback on this document during my writing process!

You probably know this already, but just in case you need a reminder, there are thousands of amazing colleges in the US.
Apply to the Ivy League schools if you’ve been dreaming about them for years, but don’t apply to only them if you’re just chasing after the brand name. Believe it or not, not everyone at Harvard or Yale is happy with their decision. They might have had a much better college experience somewhere else. Everybody is different. Find the best schools for YOU. 🎓
No matter where you end up applying to, good luck! 🙏

The disastrous decline of American higher education has been obvious for decades, but it has been in everyone’s career and financial interest to ignore it. Now we are living with the consequences.

I think I'm the college fairy
So last fall when I was a senior in high school, I was making small talk with some guy in my AP chem class about college applications. He told me that he had applied to MIT to which I responded with "I'm sure you'll get in" I thought nothing of this interaction and went on with my life. Fast forward to December and go figure, he gets into MIT. Ok, he was smart, moving on. A couple of months go by and it's now the spring of my senior year, I'm talking about college with my junior friends and one says "I really want to go to BU" to which I respond with "You'll get in"…last week he got into BU. (also let me quickly note here that my high school hardly ever admitted people to MIT and BU, these two students had broken 5-10 year-long streaks of our school having no admits to these colleges). Then, over the summer I was at work and chatting with one of my coworkers who was a rising senior, she told me that her dream school is Stanford, I responded with (as per usual) "You'll definitely get in"…two days ago she got into Stanford. And finally right before I left for college I ran into one of my friends (who was a rising senior) at a cafe. We chatted it up for a little and she expressed to me that she was interested in my college however, her top choice was Tufts I responded with "Tufts will definitely let you in"…YESTERDAY SHE GOT INTO TUFTS. Now, looking back, I realize that almost every time I've told someone that they're going to get into their dream school, they get into their dream school (with the one exception being one of my friends and Harvard…she ended up at Yale)
so in conclusion, I am the college fairy. tell me your dream school and I will tell you that you're going to get in.
#the curse of being the college fairy is that you go to your last choice college tho#might be transferring idk#pls send college fairies#college#university#college admissions#common app#ivy league#top colleges#academia#chaotic academia#txt#txt post#words

For the heck of it
I read through the requirements and application process for a PhD at a damn fine Ivy League university- , not my present one. There’s a section devoted to telling my story of my struggles and how that has shaped me. I’m fucking serious. So I’m writing “I was fairly dim and pleasantly lit throughout most of my formal schooling and that definitely interfered with my ability to earn better grades. Plus I got “invited to not return” to my first college because I was too cool for those lame-o’s.

guys I posted something for the first time since August, are you proud of me
anyways
Peter spirals after getting rejected from MIT.
Noticing the Halloween decorations at MJ's work, Peter decides to go to the only person he knows can help. Doctor Strange suggests doing a little... convincing, but Wong sees right through Peter and suggests taking a different approach.
Peter feels horrible about it, but Wong steps up and... is a lot nicer than one would think. He just seems grumpy, but a big softie underneath and Stephen... Stephen isn't as scary as he seems.

So when are we going to remove legacy admissions? If anything is unfair in the college admissions process, it's children of alumni, typically white and wealthy, can have that be used in their favor. Any plans to do away with that? No? Typical.
