Just do not apply for thereNov 19 2019Math
Just do not apply for there. Its tuition is $42000 a year and it gets more expensive every year. I attended only 2 semesters there and now I have $10k in student loan. I am switching to another university.

College is a businessFeb 09 2015English
College is a business. A lot of schools only care about your money. If the same school keeps emailing you to apply, make sure you're truly interested in the place before applying. You need to think of yourself and what you want. Your happiness and well-being as a student and a human being is the most important. If you want to go to CLU, make sure you have good academic standing and turn in your application in a timely manner. That's really the best advice I can give at this point.

I had a very good High School Academic record. If I were to do it all over with, I would have chosen Cal Poly. But I wanted a smaller school. Bad choice looking back on it now.

Just Apply! Try to get good grades but itOct 30 2014Communications
Just Apply! Try to get good grades but it is not that hard to get in. I recommend submitting application for federal aid and scholarships because they have a lot of money to give away.
