~~ Getting into college~~

A: Guess what? I’ve got some news.

B: Oh, you mean about Jack?

A: Yes, have you heard?

B: Yes, Eliza messaged me a few minutes ago.

A: Isn’t it wonderful? He’s been accepted to Stanford!

B: Really? That’s not what I heard.

A: Oh, what have you heard?

B: I heard he didn’t get in.

A: So it was just rumor.

B: If that’s what you heard, it isn’t true.

  Hereally wants to get in, but from what I’ve heard, he’s just on the waiting list.

A: Oh, then there still a chance that he’llget in.

B: I guess so. But even if he gets in, how was he going to pay for it? It’s very expensive, and his family isn’t wealthy.

A: Well, He can always get a student loan or maybe he’ll get a scholarship.

B: If he gets a loan, it will be for a lot of money. He would be taking on a lot of debt.

A: Still, a degree from Stanford is worth a lot, and I’ve heard they have a lot of money for scholarship.

B: I wonder what he’ll do? If he gets in, I hope he gets a scholarship.

She thinks a degree from Stanford is worth a lot of money.

A: What will he do if he doesn’t get into Stanford? What are his other choices?

B: The only other school…I’ve heard him mention is Cambridge, in England.

A: Oh, well that’s not a bad choice.

B: What about you? Have you heard anything?

A: Me? I’ll tell you if you promise not to tell anyone, ok?

B: Sure, if it is a secret, you can trustme.

A: I’ve been accepted in MIT on a full scholarship.

The only other school I’ve heard him mention is Cambridge, in England.

B: MIT? You’re joking, right?

A: No, I’m serious.

B: Why haven’t you told anyone.

A: I don’t know. I think I will wait until everyone has heard from there choices.

 Ireally didn’t expect to get in.

B: Yeah, especially it was a full scholarship. Some people will be jealous when they hear about it. But we all know you were smart, so it’s something you should be proud of.

A: Thanks, I really excited.

 I think I’ll wait until everyone else has heard from their choices.
