ACCEPTED BY AFS GERMANY!

Packets and letter sent in the mail after being accepted.


I can not even explain how thrilled I was to hear that I got accepted by AFS Germany. I opened the email and I read the topic and it didn't register immediately. I was in shock that much.I am absolutely thrilled about everything and it's so very hard for me to describe the feelings I get when I think about how close I am to spending a year abroad in Germany. All that is left for me to do now is finish raising the money. I have gotten some scholarships from the amazing people at Faces of America and the AFS New Jersey and I am unbelievably grateful.

Although I'm significantly closer to my goal;, I need to raise $4200 to cover the rest of my tuition and another $2000-$3000 for spending money for necessary things which would amount to around 190 - 290 euros a month [I can't come up with the conversion for dollars to euros off the top of my head, I just know that it's less].
