Suprise! Things get complicated.

A suprise came in the mail today. I recieved an official letter of acceptance from Trinity University. I began to read it aloud to my mother. After the first paragraph I read this:

In addition, we are pleased to offer you the $9,000 Trustees' Scholarship in recognition of your academic achievements. This scholarship is renewable annually for four years, for a total award of $36,000, granted you maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average as a full-time student...

When I read this I was shocked. I never thought I was going to be awarded any scholarships (I didn't even bother to apply for any), I was just worried about getting accepted to any colleges. My mom was bouncing off the walls and calling everyone she knew (she can be a little dramatic, I think that's where I inherited it from :-p). I was planning on going to ASU if I didn't get into Rice, but how can I turn down a scholarship? This is going to get even more complicated if I get that full-scholarship to Harvey Mudd College. Oh well, life goes on.
