For the counselor interviews at Enloe, you need to go to student services and get one of those senior interview packets. Fill that out, turn it back in and get scheduled for a senior interview.

First, you must wade through the molten lava of the student services line, remembering to bring with you all college supplements, counselor supplements, common app supplements, and vitamin supplements--all to realize that since your parents haven't signed your damn transcript form, you can't actually sign up for an interview. Returning to your quest, and upon passing by the various harpies that populate said office, who shriek at you, time and time again, that you likely don't have a pass and are just coming to Student Services to, you know, CHILL, fling your forms under the shutting window of the transcript office, reaching back under a second before it closes (Indiana Jones-style) to grab your pen.

Receive, as fruit of your labor, a college packet, and scour the word for those perfect thirty-seven adjectives that YOU would use to describe you, your friends would use to describe you, your teachers would use to describe you, and your second-grade field hockey coach would use to describe you. After toiling for many long and arduous hours, wait patiently, for--if you are like me--they still haven't e-mailled you about that fucking conference.

Additionally, you must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you need to meet with your counselor, in terms most satisfactory to the lovely registrar woman.

Apparently those forms are printed on gold. I will need an interview for scholarship apps, but since all I did was "ask politely" (sans paperwork), I was denied even the paper form (in addition to the interview request). Apparently, I must find another college to whom I can submit a transcript, so that I can request and official transcript, so that I can appease the registrar demigod and properly request an audience with my counselor (and the golden form). o_O

In summary: As Hannah described, it is a quest of near-insurmountable proportions. Not for the faint of heart. Undertake at your own risk.

Erm... funny, I got the request sheets yesterday, filled them in last night, then waltzed in and turned in the stuff to Ms. Stewart.

I lead a charmed life?

(However, I will probably never receive my email)
