*THE BEST DECISION*
MY senior year in high school was the toughest year possible. I suffered the death of my grandmother, whom I was born and raised by, I broke my foot three games into my senior basketball season, and others. I knew that all that i was going through would not kill me, but would only make me stronger and better for the rest of my life. I applied to the University of Tennessee at Knoxville by the November 1 deadline. I was not accepted until late february early march, honestly that was very discouraging because I was accepted to six other colleges before getting accepted to my number 1 choice. Even then, when I was accepted I still had the task on getting the money to attend, or just going somewhere else that I wasnt interested in going. So, I prayed and prayed, I did my fasfa on Jan 3, which was way before I was accepted but i kept the faith that I would be a VOL. So now it was the middle of march and I made the decision that I would go to UT no matter the circumstance, and come to find out my fin. aid and outside scholarships paid for everything! So I was so elated towards coming to Knoxville. Ever since August 18, I knew that choosing to come to UT was one of the best decisions I have made in my life thus far. UT is such a great school, we have tutoring and hlep for every subject offered here, we have all sorts of bulidings for any problem you may have or any concern, and of course that southern hospitality in how easy it is to make new friends! I consider this the best decision ever. I love being here at UT, from the FREE games in ever sport, down to the orange and white pride that is shown around here. I consider this THE BEST DECISION EVER.
