thank you so much!! this is such a sweet comment. i'm sure we will see each other around and good luck on your final year!

thanks for the comment! i ended up loving the book so much, the characters just got a bit on my nerves in the first few chapters. i hope you love it as much as i did!

@@dilemmmas thank you!

congrats on studying at st as! it's a captivating place to be sure

@@dilemmmas Thanks, I'm really lucky that I got to go to the summer school through the Sutton trust, I reckon if it wasn't for that I'd not have gotten in

thanks for the recommendation! as i have curly hair already i am a bit iffy on investing in something like that- however i have heard nothing but good things about the product!

hey! thank you so much for the comment! so i've been contemplating making a larger video about the program experience as a whole- let me know if that is something you would be interested in- but we had a certain area we could be unchaperoned and the rest you were recommended to have a chaperone. my recommendations would be the book stores such as westside books if you like to read! i had a great time doing that and then hanging in central park afterward!

I think there's quite a few bursaries and scholarships available which are all in the website. Some are subject/school specific, but others are only means tested.

No way! Huge congrats! I hope to see you around campus then!

Thank you so much for reaching out! That's exciting, their postgrad programs are amazing as well from what I've heard, I hope to see you around campus!

Thank you for the insight! I hope she had a great time where she did end up going!

And that's exactly why you're saying that. Everyone wants the exotic.

Thank you so much for the kind message! I really appreciate your support!

Thanks for the advice! I hope I'll be equipped- I'm from a cold place myself- and I'm very excited!

Thank you for the information! I do know students at St Andrews and thankfully they haven't had a problem with this!

Think you come out with an MA after 4 years at St Andrews, pretty common in Scotland.

Thank you so much for the comment and your kind words! I am interested in going for a postgraduate degree, right now the goal is Oxford as I've always wanted to attend there as a postgraduate student more so than an undergraduate student. I'm thinking of going there for either law or english, but that is a decision for me in a few years. The goal is to become an author however I'm very interested in international law as well! Again thank you so much for the comment, it's so amazing you've found so much success academically and I aim to do the same. Thank you!

Just a shortened version :)

Yep! I got a bit of feedback that my first video was too long- I thought the length was helpful to show the behind the scenes but I totally understand just trying to see the reactions so I decided to just publish both versions so people could pick!

I'd say having a great support system got me so far, just always know that one test or quiz isn't that serious and give yourself grace. High school isn't about being perfect it's about trying everything and trying to find yourself as well and what you are interested in. Aim high! You can do this, I'm rooting for you!

You can fast forward, she labeled at the bottom when she switches to a different school

This is an emotional insight into something very personal. Be positive and supportive.

Thank you so much! It really is such a beautiful place!

@@al-oq1jr what does that mean?

UH…

What the fuck

Thank you!!

You can fast forward, she labeled at the bottom when she switches to the next school.

Ahh thank you so much for the support! It really is a dream come true!!

Ari!!!! I love love love you! Text me, I miss you! Thanks for watching my love 🫶🏼

Thank you so much for the comment! Gosh I could really go on about this topic honestly, let me know if you want a video on all of my reasons or something, but here are my top reasons. For some context, I didn’t have a dream school before I visited St Andrews. I knew I wanted the UK but I didn’t have a particular school in mind and while the ones I visited (even Oxford) were all pretty, St Andrews felt right to me in a way that is hard to explain. So that is how I got to know it, and even from half a day there I knew it was the place for me. From there I began to investigate and I found out several factors that made it that much more attractive. First, the Scottish system is a tad more flexible than the English one, while it is still direct to degree, St Andrews is more open to working with students in case they would like to pivot their major, etc. Second, it is impressively academic on it’s own, topping a few league tables over the past few years. Third, it is very friendly to international students and that would make the process a lot easier for me. Beyond that I have so much I love- the traditions, the town, the societies and sports, the ease of travel in Europe, I could really go on and on. I hope this helped, let me know if you have any other questions! I’m so glad my advice helped- you aren’t alone in the stress and I’m rooting for you all the way! Again, let me know if I can help in any other way :)

Thank you for explaining! I’d love to see a video on this. Maybe I’ll see you on campus next year!

Aww thank you!! I’m so glad it helped! I’m rooting for you, let me know if you have any other questions. You got this!!!

It was the right choice for me! Thanks for watching!

the uni experience at st andrews is better than kcl in my opinion so its not shocking to me that she picked it. plus there are so many amercians at st andrews, and so many royal family members went there. she will absolutely love it!

much better experience, London is expensive and not a student city@@user-sn2ob7ms9l

Thank you so much for the kind message and the support 🫶🏼

Thanks so much for sharing!! I don’t know many Oxford applicants in real life so it’s always awesome to hear from other people that are going for it too! I completely agree about it being win-win, while my dream admission isn’t restrictive Oxford is one of the last big schools that might challenge me going there. Wishing us both luck let me know what happens tomorrow!!

@@dilemmmas I got an offer! I'm pretty sure I've already met the conditions too, so I'm over the moon! I hope the morning brought good news for you as well. I don't think there's a way to do DMs through RUclips, but it'd be fun to chat if you're making the same sort of decision. For me it'll be Oxford v. Yale, so I can use all the help I can get...

@@quintonmoats5859That’s amazing! Congratulations! I’m actually not going to have to be making a decision which is amazing, but I’m just glad because I believe I would’ve chosen my dream school even if I got an offer from Oxford for a variety of reasons. As for your dilemma, best of luck, I’d say pro con lists are always a big help and also just considering how comfortable you are with going out of your comfort zone and out of the country. I think for me also part of the reason why deciding (even earlier than the decision day) that Oxford wasn’t for me was the fact that I want to get a postgrad degree and therefore will hopefully have another shot at it then when it’s right.

Glad to hear someone else felt the same! I did actually end up getting an interview- I'm going to be doing a whole college decision reaction here on this channel so it'll be in there somewhere. I originally applied for Exeter but was switched to St Edmund's which I was actually super happy about as I feel it fits me better! Wishing you luck!!

Oh man I’m sorry… I definitely feel you on that one, I wrote a really good essay and put a lot of work into the exam. While it was very disappointing I understand why they had to do it and respect their choice. I’m sure it was much appreciated for the majority of students who probably felt so much more stressed if they wrote the wrong essay or weren’t even able to take it. Good luck with your college journey I’m rooting for you!

@@dilemmmas thanks❤️
