  • 24 college apps (whoops) later, here is my college decision reaction vid!
    in the end, the college application process is more of a lottery now than it ever was, but it all worked out in the end. :)
    if you have any questions or suggestions, plz comment or dm me on insta (@anika.suman). i will definitely be posting more videos throughout my college journey, so be sure to lmk what else you'd like to see!

    Congrats! I am very impressed with your mature decision to take the full ride instead of an Ivy. Nothing sets you up life better than entering adulthood without debt.

      Was thinking the same thing. People throw themselves into Ivies and not really considering debt free life after another great school.

    Congrats, as someone who had tons of grad school loan debt, you made a great decision! Some people get too lured by the big names to think clearly. Not that Duke is anything to scoff at. Many students would kill to get there and you got a full ride and a very challenging field. I am a graduate of UIUC engineering and proud to see a charismatic and smart woman go into an engineering major.
