Fuck Colleges
God dammit... Fucken god dammit...
I just got the rejection letter from my last top college. I wanted to go into Computer Engineering for software development. All my top colleges that I got rejected from were Cal Poly, UC Davis, University of Washington, and now Santa Clara University. My SAT and ACT scores were higher than the average for all those schools. I took an online UC Santa Cruz Java programming class over the summer (got rejected from them too) to get a head start on the knowledge for my degree and got an A in the class. I went to a very well known private high school. I spent hours on my essays with multiple scholars reviewing them. My only problem was that my GPA was low with a 3.4 but I have ADD and Dyslexia (tested for both) and in my first semester of senior year I got a 3.8 (each semester my grades rose). I put my best foot forward... yet still failed...
The other colleges I got into: Seattle University, Gonzaga, and Washington State Pullman aren't nearly as recognized for their computer departments. Almost all my friends who applied to my top schools got in even with less acknowledgements than mine.
I feel like such a failure right now... I don't know what to do...
