Applied with a 3.26 gpa and years of experience, got in. However, despite a scholarship, it would have meant taking out $50k a year in loans; hence, I am at Salem State.

I'm in my first semester at Salem State and am happy. At an intern thing last week, I learned there were two BC students at my placement agency. The amount I pay for placement as opposed to what they pay....Field work is great, plus you can get work study for placement.

Thanks all! Got the day off after all.

My program's orientation is next week. I asked for the day off work, but might not get it. The school says the orientation is mandatory, so I worry that missing it will start me off on the wrong foot. Thoughts?

My plan is to leave August 1. I want to stay on as a relief worker at my job, so that is incentive for me to be positive.

My interview with field placement person was great! I really liked her, and I am super stoked about the idea of a placement. Now, I just wait for an agency to contact me. (yeesh, this whole deal is waiting, isn't it)

Thanks!

Hey crew, Meeting with the field placement office at my school tomorrow. Any tips?

Salem State University for me.

Salem State.

Why it;s so much easier to advise other people on their choices than your own?

Congrats! You still going to Michigan?

In at Salem State!

What do you wish you had asked current students about?

Oh good grief, you poor thing!
