Hi Koala-tea,
The app process was super stressful for me as well! Mostly because I went in to the field completely blind and without knowing anyone who was affiliated with the field.
Sorry you received disappointing news from the other schools. Have you heard back from Augusta?
Congratulations on your acceptance! I'll be going to Augusta. It's all so exciting isn't it?
If you all have social media/websites I would love to connect with you there!
