Was going to Morehouse on a full scholarship...
they flaked.
Was going to Howard on a scholarship...
they ignored.
Was going to PVamu on scholarship...
my family stone faced me.
Was going to UT-Austin on scholarship... felt like an athlete because they sent recruiters to my school every week to see if I was going...
I waited..
Decided Texas A&M was my best decision...
they gave me a lot of money--handled everything well.
Now, I look back, A&M was the best decision of my life. A&M has given me an experience like no other--sometimes overwhelming, but non the less anexperience I will cherish. I have become assimilated into the society and it feels like I'm not even in college--it feels like I'm on another worldwhere good grades is the only way you will survive.
Will I have had this experience at a HBCU, probably not. Not everyday you can claim you must work harder than the rest to be recognized as I am the onlyminority in a lot of my classes.
my views--everything! definitely better than these half-experiences at Gtech where I visited. Wasn't worth it.
