wow, I didn't even recognize that as ut at first.
Are you going to the open house this weekend?
I am so undecided on universities right now :(
What programs are you looking at?

It's only one of their many colleges. It's such a big school!
Since the crappy rep at the uni fair held at my school last week was no help whatsoever, I'm gonna go to the open house for sure.
I wanna get out of TO! but we'll see..
I'm looking into architecture/design programs. Or possibly something general so I can decide later. How about you?

Yeah, I wanted to go to Waterloo before..but now, I'm not so sure.

I'm thinking business/commerce. Or accounting, but we'll see.

I remember going through all that :D I had just turned 17 when I was applying to everywhere, you do feel rediculously young to be making life altering decisions.
The vast majority of students [here at least] change their mind about what they're gonna study, so don't stress too badly if you're not entirely sure. You can always change, cross-credit what you've done, etc etc. Definately go to open days to get a feel for the campus! And try find a university thats best for what you want to study - so if thats design, then apply to the best design programmes. Though you'll most likely become quite attached to wherever you end up going.

Thanks for the advice!
I guess you're right about the last part. Which is what I'm trying to do in convincing myself it's a good school for me. I will eventually love it I hope. If you don't mind me asking, what are you studying and how do you like it?

I'm doing a Bachelor of Design in Illustration, and its aaawesome. I've actually only done one illustration paper this year, the rest have been animation or graphic design or photography. There's lots of room to change what are I major in, which might be something you want to look in to?

Ahhh! Haven't talked to you in forever (Probably my fault, I'll go check my e-mails.. haha)

The school here is only one college out of the huge campus where about 60,000 students go. Scholarships aren't exactly necessary to go there but it would totally make it easier on paying for school :( The fees can get pretty ridiculous. I don't even know if I can think about getting residence or an apartment.
