Where did you apply for college?

Friends then WSU.

Good luck affording Friends nowdays.

$570 a credit hour. Absurd.

The professors I was scheduled to meet with at KU never showed up.
Two profs met with me at WSU and gave me a tour of the place as a high school senior.

Already had an MA project in mind and decided to stay.
Took a Fulbright in 2001-2002

Outstanding financial support for students. Thanks tourists!

Currently ABD and on fellowship at the American School of Classical Studies in Athens.

Never, ever once, have I regretted my decision to stay for undergrad and MA at WSU.

$570 a credit hour. Absurd.

5 years ago my company was reimbursing me at over $800/credit hour at Boston University. I just checked and it's now at $1,092/credit hour. I don't think a lot of people realize the value with higher education here in Kansas.

[WstateU]

Undergrad Acceptance
American
Brown
Cornell
Grinnell
Harvard
Kansas
MIT
Oxford
School of Hard Knocks
Stanford
Wichita State University (the choice was a slam dunk!)

Seriously, I’m blown away by the higher education of this board… nobody should be ashamed to post in this thread… the education or lack of education, make Shockernet better. I have friends and relatives who are very successful and they were educated at the School of Hard Knocks.

P.S. I actually applied at KU, K-State & Wichita State-BBA (Best choice of my life)
