First, take a deep breath. If some of the news has been disappointing, allow yourself a day or two to be disappointed, but then pick yourself up and move on. There is a college out there that loves you and wants you on its campus, so rejoice in that. If you fortunate enough to have several options, remember that you must make your decision by May 1. My friend, Scott Chrysler, offers some excellent advice on what to do next, but I want to particularly highlight two of his suggestions.
One, do not accept more than one offer! Not only is it highly unethical, but it can backfire on you.
And two, your senior year is not over. Read those acceptance letters carefully. Your acceptance is contingent on you finishing your senior year successfully. You can do it!
If I'm counting correctly, you only have 47 more days until graduation!
