On Friday of last week I got a letter in the mail that said I was provisionally accepted into the teaching cohort of Fall 2009. The provision I had to give by January 30, 2009 was a professional letter of recommendation from an employer. Anyone who knows me knows I haven't had a job in over a year. I had gotten advised from the secondary teaching adviser to just get 2 of my major area teachers to write letters and not to worry about the employer letter. Needless to say I was a little bit angry when I wasn't accepted because I yet again had bad advising. It has been a horrible battle since getting into University; ISU and the U.
I emailed her with my dilemma and I just got an email back from her. She stepped in with the acceptance committee and plead my case. I am now fully accepted into the program without that provision. The only pending thing is my completion of the pre-cohort classes. That is why I will be extra busy next semester and summer semester. (Can you tell I want to graduate as soon as possible?)
This news has made me really happy. I am glad that I have gotten the news before Christmas. It makes less of a stress during my break from school. Endrit was really happy to hear that as well. He is really excited for me to be a University graduate. It is getting so close and we are both getting really excited about it. I now know that I WILL be student teaching Fall 2009 - Spring 2010.
