Depressed

The professor I interviewed with at NEWENCO called me today and left a very nice message on my answering machine. (I don't think he knows that I am not going there). It made me feel like such a heel. Truth is, I love both ICO and NEWENCO. If I could go to both of them at the same time, I would. Some days I'm really happy that I chose ICO but there's this little nagging voice in the back of my head always saying "But remember how wonderful NEWENCO was? It was like a fantasy." I just really hope I don't end up regretting my choice for the rest of my life....

Thanks for reading my whine.
Luv,
Eyegirl🙁

From reading all your past posts, you've been excited about ICO forever. I think that whatever you choose will be the right choice as your ultimate goal is to be the best optometrist you can. This is not the time to be depressed!!! You're accepted!! You're on your way!!! I wish I was in your place...🙂

Even though ICO is also private, just think of the $$ you saved and hopefully that'll make you feel better.

I felt the same way you did after I left my NEWENCO interview(mainly b/c I love Boston). I am sure you made the right choice, you seem to really love ICO. 🙂

Funny, I was in the exact same situation as yourself (accepted to both ICO and NEWENCO) and I went with NEWENCO. I often wonder what it would have been like to go to ICO. If it makes u any more certain, the idea of living in Boston loses it's appeal.
Don't get me wrong, Boston is a great city to be in but it kinda wears you down when you have an $8000 tuition payment due in a week, plus the $700 u have to pay in rent for your small studio apartment, and you're still waiting for your financial aid check to come in which was suppose to be deposited a week ago. I guess what I'm trying to say, is that you really do pay for living down in Boston and at least from my standpoint, the novelty is not worth the hefty price tag.

I just got a Christmas card from NEWENCO!!! From Dr. Lewis. ouch..salt in the wound....

Thanks everyone. I do love ICO. I just wish I could be in two places at once.
