Yup! Transfer time is approaching quickly! ALlllll too quickly! So, I'mma make this brief. 'Cause I've got things to do.

Colleges Applying to (In order of Preference so far):
1. Ringling College of Art and Design
2. Savannah College of Art and Design
3. Maryland Institute of College Art
4. James Madison University

Things to do to ensure this all goes smoothly:
-Pull pieces of art together for a portfolio consisting of 15-40 images
-Put together a College Resume
-Call colleges of interest to make sure they've got my name on yet another list and to gather further information
-Attend college fairs and portfolio days
-APPLY TO AS MANY SCHOLARSHIPS AS I CAN!!!

The quick dealy-o with scholarships:

I desperately need them if I'm going to go anywhere other than JMU. Why? Because my dad doesn't want to pay for Art school. Can't blame him...but still. I'm getting to the point where I feel he's just trying to humor me and playing along until he gets to tell me 'no' for a good reason. ....And quite frankly, if that happens, I'll likely just pack all my stuff up and drive off somewhere on my own. Anywayy...

I've already applied to several lottery-type scholarships and a couple merit-based-online-profile ones (i.e. cappex.com) Next I've got to get those effort-requiring ones taken care of.

Oh yeah. And on top of all that, I've still gotta attend school full time AND work weekends/whenever else I'm open.
