I <3 Connecticut

I'm going to Connecticut from September 2014 till May 2015.

It'll be two more months till I know which university I'm going to but at least I know for sure that I'm going. I'm hoping against hopes that it will be Yale but that's unlikely because Konstanz only gets to send one grad or PhD student there every year and I'm sure I have some mean competition but who knows and I also wouldn't mind my second choice, the University of Connecticut, at all. I have to pick a third choice but the other schools Konstanz has a partnership with either don't have graduate programs or they don't have good concentrations on minority literature. Right now I'm trying to decide between Fairfield University and Southern Connecticut State University though I'm not 100% happy with either school, so I'm hoping it's true what they say about you usually getting into your first or second choice school.

At least I know that I'm going abroad after nine or ten months of preparation. It's going to have been a year before I know where exactly I'm going though.
