| | It's that time of year. My inbox is flooded with offers of waived application fees. I came home a few weekends ago to find a foot-high stack of brochures on my desk. If my phone wires weren't messed up, I'd probably be getting a bunch of calls, too.
It's that time of year. I have my official admissions student worker t-shirt. I'm writing thank-you notes for students who have visited. Tours are being given. High schoolers are staying over night.
I feel very conflicted.
This is one of those entries where the writer talks about how they're feeling, because I really have no idea what I'm supposed to do.
I want to transfer. If I'm going to transfer, I need to be applying places. If I apply places, the admissions office here is going to catch wind. If the admissions office finds out I'm applying other places, they aren't going to want me giving tours. If they don't want me giving tours, I don't have a job. If I don't have a job, I have to go home. And then I could find out that I was supposed to stay after all.
On the other hand, if I don't apply anywhere because I'm afraid of being fired, I could be stuck somewhere I'm not supposed to be.
You're always told that applying doesn't mean you've made your decision. You can still choose another school. You can do whatever your little heart wants to do. Well, I can't. If I apply, that's it. I'm done. Whether I go to another school or not, I'm not staying here.
What the snap? I hate this.
