I made the most amazing phone call I have ever made earlier today.
I am going to Wake Forest University School of Law next fall. Since I had already enrolled, I decided, what the hell, I am going to call and ask for a scholarship (even though I know they were already given out). When I called they told me that 2 had come available, one was already gone, but they gave me the other one. It was worth half tuition or approximately 14k/yr for 3 yrs. So my 5 minute phone call just got me 42,000 at least off the cost of my law school education.
It may have been just dumb luck that I called then, but if you are going to school next year, and havent gotten a scholarship, call and ask. It just might work! It did for me
PS - I cannot believe this happened. I am absolutely the happiest man alive right now.

that truly is amazing--I've never heard of that before.
pas, that's the exact same amount I got to UVA (14k/yr.). i'm sure you'll enjoy winston-salem. i have several friends who went there for undergrad and loved it.
yeah, im really looking forward to it... I was just down there for the last 2 days getting an apartment.
I also got real lucky there!!! The manager of a really nice complex was moving out of his unit to a diff one, so we got the best unit in the place for a 2BR. This just seems to be my lucky week. Maybe my freeflatscreens will get approved and my stubborn yellows on gusto will change!
