Great News!

Sometime in November, I went with a few other girls and picked up ten high school seniors from a school in L.A. and brought them back to APU. We showed them around the school and then helped them fill out college apps and the fafsa, because we knew they hadn't had much help from the school in this area. I was assigned to one boy, named Trevor. I found out that Trevor was actually incredibly smart in math, he even tutored other kids, but had a really hard time in English. He had no idea how to start his admissions essay, so this is where I got to help him - being that i LOVE english! We wrote 3/4 of his essay that day, and then he went home, finished it, and sent it in. He just sent me a message on facebook telling me that he is accepted!! hooray! I don't know if he's planning on going to APU, but at least he got to feel accomplished by being accepted to the university. I'm stoked!!
