It's official!

It's official!! I've been accepted to the Summer Company program! Basically, they'll give me a grant to help me start up my own business (ie. Etsy), and if I complete the program by the end of the summer, they'll give me an extra grant to go directly towards my tuition. So for an entire summer (and longer if I want to do it on my own), I get to be my own boss, do my own thing, and try to make some money. And the best part? No one can let me down by not doing their share of the work (sometimes teachers give waaaaay too many group projects).

From the email:

Hi Steph!

I just wanted to let you know that you have been approved to participate in Summer Company 2011!!! You should receive your check in a couple weeks.

Yay!!
