Thank you, AudioEnvy. I wish you the best of luck as well! I am a firm believer that things happen for a reason. Even if it is not what we had originally wanted or planned for, it will all work out.
I'm sorry, Theasaurus! This whole application process was such a rollercoaster of emotions! The admissions process is always going to be kind of a mystery to me. You never really know where you're going to get in and there are just so many people applying now! Boulder said they had over 500 applicants. CRAZY!
Although I'm still pretty bummed, I know that it'll work out no matter what. Being rejected from somewhere that I had had so much hope for (I have family in Boulder and just love the city) has given me the chance to consider places that I had never really thought too much about before.
Best of luck to you!
Thanks, WannabeSLP! You too!
