Back to Uni Once More

I have recently been working on my application to university (commonly called uni here in the UK). I hopefully will start in September 2009 b/c of the stupid law that says you have to live in the country for the previous three years before you can start uni as a “Home Student” or I have to “International Student” fees about $22,000.00 per year!

I am applying to three universities:
A) University of East London (UEL), Docklands Campus to study their Communication Studies and Creative & Professional Writing Joint Combined Honours Programme
B) London College of Communication (LCC), part of the University of the Arts London to study their Creative Advertising Strategy BA Honours Programme
And C) King's College Cambridge, University of Cambridge to study their English Tripos
That’s about it. What do you all think? We’ll see what will happen.

Also, last Wednesday (3 September) I went to the UEL Open Evening at the Docklands Campus w/ Dad, and I enjoyed it very much. I REALLY like the campus b/c 1) it’s about 20 minutes away from my home, 2) the facilities are very accessible (as it’s a new campus only built in 2000), and 3) it has quite good courses (where you can practically combine any degree w/ another). However, I just want to visit LCC and King's before I decide which to choose.

Plus, I’m getting quite anxious b/c I have to apply by the end of September, but everything always works out for the best; and I CANNOT wait to be a university student again, which will begin to fulfil my life goals, though being accepted into Cambridge would just be a dream and totally wicked...

WISH ME LUCK!
