We've also gotten some great feedback from you, our readers. We're sending you happy vibes, too. If you're feeling stuck thinking through next steps, take a look at some of our previous posts, below. (You'll see some of them were posted by my colleague Alison, who is so smart and so wise that I must simply bow down before her.) And if the news wasn't great, we've included some advice for you among those posts, too. Most importantly:
"Hundreds of thousands of people are leading happy, successful lives even though they didn't get into their first choice college.... It is empirically true. No question."
Onwards!
