I SENT MY FIRST COLLEGE APPLICATION FORM OFF!!!!

If you are in year 11 you are probably in the middle of making the big decision of whether to go to sixth form, college or maybe an apprenticeship. I know for a fact that I would like to go to a college or the sixth form at my school but at the moment I don't know which one. A couple of minutes ago I sent off a college application to one of my number one choices. Honestly it was extremely nerve-racking as its kind of like sending off your future. It included my choices of A-levels and a 500 character personal statement. To some it might seem weird that I'm so nervous about what college I might be going to but personally it is a massive deal to me. I go to a single-sex school which means I feel like I am lacking a social life and of course I want to go to a school with a high standard of grades. It all seems like a little bit too much to handle.

If you are like me and have no clue what school you want to go to I suggest applying to a load of places and then seeing how many places you get into. You have no limit as to how many schools you can apply to because you apply to them all individual. I am sure that the list of places I get into will be short and so this will allow me a better idea of what school to pick.

I hope this gave you a bit of insight about how I feel about picking colleges. It might have even helped you a little.
