Admissions Anxiety


I'm looking forward to a gentle summer free of exams and papers. On Thursday I completed my graduate certificate in Systems Analysis and Design at Metro State. I actually graduated Thursday night, only certificate program students don't walk across the stage or wear a cap and gown. You just get a notation of completion on your transcript. Still, it's exciting, and I'm light-headed not just with exhaustion and relief, but a bit of exhilaration as well.
I'm applying for an MBA program in the fall. At my first choice school I've jumped over all but one of the hurdles in the applications process. The only thing left is the admissions interview with the program director. I've never had an admissions interview before, so I'm a little anxious. Luckily it's a good kind of anxiety, one charged with excitement instead of weighted by dread. Hopefully next fall I'll have a new school logo sticker in the back window of my Smart car. My fingers are crossed.
