I got accepted to my choice university which is one of the top in the nation, but now I feel empty like was working hard at school really worth getting to where I am now. I don't think I am any happier or sadder than I would be if I weren't to get in.
Any advice /bant/?

Definitely better than me. I'm not working near as much as I should be to get into uni.

Not really. At least you've accomplished something and have the possibility to do more. Just like it could get worse, it could also be good.

Where did you hear that? I'm trying to get into engineering and it's 15k+ a year tuition. Also, because it's Canada only the best schools are internationally recognized so to have a chance outside of Canada I have to get into one of those.

oh I've got scholarships to my university with my state which pays for all of the tuition of the college, so the out of pocket expense for me is around $4,000 a year. I'm surprised to hear college is really expensive in Canada isn't the northern provinces of the U.S a socialist utopia.

Well there's bursaries which I don't qualify for (visable minority, extremely poor), but it's possible I might get scholarships. I think universities are subsidized by the province? Not too sure though. What program did you get into?

My state gives out a grant to its citizens where if you make a 3.8 gpa our higher you have 100% of the tuition cost covered, and with additional scholarships you can bring that price down to zero. Oh, so the Canadian university system still does affirmative action. They stopped doing that in the U.S, so that's probably why my ass was able to get in, and also both my parents went to that university, so It kinda feels like it wan't really even my achievement.

Is the reason you got into that uni only because of your parents? If not, it's because of you, so that's an achievement. Also yeah, affirmative action is a huge factor, with applications asking about your demographic data. It works against me for sure.

If I was you, I would just lie about my background. I would say I'm a latino, and then getting into uni is easy as 1 2 minority.

One of my friends was a 100% white south american, but since he had that latino last name. He got into a college that has an average gpa of around a 3.9 with a 3.5

Probably not the answer you want to hear, but top universities aren't top because they're better, they're top because they only let in the best students who are likely to get results. Anyway it sounds like you're depressed one way or the other and the whole university thing is irrelevant. Take it easy on yourself.
