Okay, I thought I would add this really quick.
I don’t know if I mentioned this before, but I am a student phoner for Capital University’s admissions office. This means I call prospective students and talk to them about Capital. (Yes, I know. One of those people who wont stop calling you. But remember. We call because we love you, and we really want you to come to Capital. I’m being serious.)
Anyways, I had a conversation the other day with a prospective student who was worried about financing college in general. She was worried because she wanted to attend a private school, but it was just so much money. And I know that’s the situation for a lot of you out there. So, I just want to give you my story on this.
I come from a divorced family. I live with my mother and my brother, and money isn’t always the most apparent thing in my family. I really wanted to attend a private institution, but was really worried that I wouldn’t be able to because of the cost. However, when I came to Capital, the admissions staff told me that they would work with me to make sure that Capital became a reality for me.
And, look! Here I am, and the financial situation is not a burden for me here. I just wanted you all to know that there are people out there who want you to achieve your dreams, just like the admissions staff here at Capital helped me achieve mine. That’s a main reason why I chose to go here, because everyone here is like that. Seriously. No joke. They want you to succeed. So, I figured, if they cared enough about me to do anything possible to help make Capital a reality, then this is the school for me.
Just remember, there is always some kind of help out there! You just have to really work at it! If you want college enough, it will come on its own.
I would also like to take this time to thank Kim and Sara in the admissions office. Without you, I would not be here typing this right now. Thank you for helping me achieve my dreams.
Have a great day, everyone!
