Another Step Toward Higher Education

I have received email confirmation that my application to the SIRLS program at UofA (check me out, using acronyms already!) was received and more information is needed. For instance, I completely and utterly forgot that I attended the Community College of Allegheny County when I lived in Pittsburgh the first time. This was about 1987 so I may be forgiven. But the UofA caught onto this immediately. The transcripts should be coming forthwith. I will also need to update my application since four months have elapsed between the University’s application and the receipt of the program application. It took me that long just to scare up both my recommendation letters. They were totally stellar and worth the wait. I got a little misty and aw-shucks when I was provided a preview.
