Semi-Finalist for NSLI-Y
Hey Guys,
Iām a semi-finalist for Korea summer and Mandarin summer (2nd choice) !!!
I was so excited when I got the email on December 1st that I screamed really loud and then my mom came running up the stairs worried lol.
I was debating with myself whether I wanted to blog about this or leave it out (because thereās still a 50/50 chance I donāt make it)
But you know what? It doesnāt matter because becoming a semi-finalist is an honor itself and why not blog about my experience?Ā
Ā I remember finding out about NSLI-Y 2 years ago, but it was too late to apply the first year. The second year I got rejected the first round, and this year Iām a semi.
But honestly, Iām trying not to get my hopes up because itās really difficult to get in and -Ā if I donāt get in Iāll be super depressed..
Thanks for reading!
