So... That happened: Exeter.
May. 17th, 2010 12:33 pmI got accepted into Exeter. I got my acceptance e-mail, today.
As the email says, "Tuition fees for [2010/2011] are £11100.00. Fees for subsequent years should be expected to rise." That converts to $15,996.87, for the first year, and I have not received any word on my scholarship application, or a stipended teaching position. Couple that with the fact that I am... fairly well done with academia, right now, yes, and you have... Me not going to England. It simply isn't as important to me, as it once was.
On the other hand, Exeter is a prestigeous international university, and they want me. This is pretty much all I wanted, from this process, anymore.
So, in the words of MC Frontalot, "To the kids who arbitrated on the topic of cool/ Look at my cool hat...!" http://blip.fm/~oi8pj
