    I can totally relate. I got accepted into Georgetown but received 0 financial aid so I’ll probably go to Umiami in the fall.

    It’s so nice to see another Black person who’s interested in both business and Chinese... I feel like I’ll definitely see you around in the business world...I’ll be transferring to USC (Fall 2020 Sophomore )for Chinese and will do Chinese Business Japanese and a minor in German. Definitely could see myself working next to you (he said as uncreepily as possible 😂) I just love your approach and intelligence especially in a field that’s not very minority friendly but also specifically not Black friendly. So do you have any plans for when you graduate college like which company or whatever do you want to work for? I’m also trying to self study or take some Cantonese classes because I definitely want to go to Asia (Hong Kong especially) for the fun and business vibes.

    I just read your article on Poets and Quants! I think it’s rlly nice that you’re enjoying Miami. I decided to apply pretty late but I’m rlly glad I did (although I can’t get a full tuition scholarship now). I visited last week and the campus was so amazing! The city seems perfect and has a huge financial district in Brickel which is nice. Do you have aspirations for the Street and has Miami helped you towards your goal?

    But if you re more into ngo s, non profit, communication, marketing etc Miami or Gtech were probably the better options indeed... Anyway good luck and you can always go to Wharton for ur MBA ;)

    • @MikaelaCherelle
      @MikaelaCherelle  Před 4 lety +2

      lol they all say that but its really based on what they think your financial need is/should be from FAFSA and other forms. You can talk to the fin aid offices and get a bit more aid sometimes but if your family is in that not poor enough to qualify for need based but not wealthy enough to actually pay 70k a year position funding college is just really tough. sorry this was long esp cause thats not actually why i ruled washu out i just didnt like the campus and the city it was in that much after visiting

      Where one elects to attend college is a personal choice. Being black does not obligate you to attend an HBCU. The college selection process is difficult enough without receiving more pressure from external sources. Don’t criticize someone’s decisions or offer advice unless it is requested.
