Scholarship
Checklist of things to do in next two months, as I see it:
- Place admission acceptance deposit
- Apply for I-20
- Research the accommodation matter
- See if there is a need for obtaining medical forms etc.
While I cannot do anything about processing of documentation yet, I took some joy in researching the relocation questions. They say, there is no rental accommodation shortage in Charlottesville, and there are different kinds of property available to graduate students, from dormitory to townhouses and apartments. Descriptions of the college halls community are attractive; also, many admitted people among my future classmates look for sharing an apartment with one or two other graduates, so, there is a broad list of options with regard to accommodation. Anyway, I figured out for myself that I am sort of too old now for sharing bathrooms and coming home on my tiptoes late at night ;) Now, I have to decide what is better for me: having more exposure to the community through cohabitation with another student or enjoying the advantages of mastering my own den.
Important dates:
- August 9: Mandatory orientation session begins
- August 20: Start of the program
congratulations miss. do you have an email id which you can share - maybe drop me an email at forrestgump47@gmail.com if that's ok.
Darden is a superb place and my friends who have gone there tell me that they had the best years of their life there...
And to top it off - you have a scholarship there! Enjoy the sweet taste of success!
