| thought, I chose to attend the local
| |
| | a few days of filling out your
|
| junior college instead of an out-of-town
| |
| | application. If you can, do it the same

| |
| | request for your transcripts. You should
|
| transfer, spend two more years to finish

| | also keep in mind that in-progress
