So How Do You Feel About Austria?

Good news!! All applications are turned in, finished, and ready to be reviewed by their respective committees... so now I can focus 100% on fundraising! (I should hear about what I've received for scholarships in a few weeks or so.)

And second, if you don't know about the various programs I am applying for, here ya go: AFS is the program I've been talking most about and the one for which I need to fundraise. AFS Germany prefers 16-to-18-year-olds and non-vegetarians...so that's kind of a no-no for me. AFS Austria, however, does accept 15-year-olds and vegetarians so Austria is now my preferred choice for next year.

The other program is Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange (CBYX) and is a full-ride scholarship all the way to Germany. CBYX only gives out 250 scholarships a year.
