    @Rose113 thats unfortunate. did you look around other colleges in your area or is that college the only one that you could go to?

    Hi @Rose113

    I'm sorry to hear about this, I imagine you are going through a difficult time, but I'm glad you reached out.

    Have you spoken to your school or the college about other options? Is there a career or type of work you had in mind, there may be different ways of reaching your goals.

    Best wishes,
    Fiona ◡̈

    Hey @Rose113 farsi I’m really sorry that you didn’t get into college so such a shame and that there isn’t any colleges around your local area. I’m just wondering do you think Maybe you might look into like other options like for example maybe a different course or maybe getting a part-time job and doing some volunteering. . I know it can be difficult to think about the different things that you could do right now but I’m sure whatever u decide u will be amazing at! <3
