William Paterson University

Immediate Decision Day seems like a tough thing,

Going to the school and not knowing what the day would bring.

William Paterson University was my first Immediate Decision Day,

I wasn't sure if I should do it or just walk away.

My aunt went to college at WPU,

So what I heard about the school wasn't anything new.

I went online and started the application,

All these applications make me want to go on vacation!

I sent in the application and transcript form,

talked to my parents and decided I wouldn't dorm.

Finally the day was near,

I hoped, "You're accepted!" is what i would hear.

We got on the bus and headed to the school,

I was nervous but tried to keep cool.

We got there and I thought of what I would say,

nervous because today was a big day.

I walked in the office and talked to the Mr.Cano,

hoping in the end I wouldn't get a no.

I was in there for a few minutes

and then he had made his final decision.

I was accepted and it felt great,

knowing that I wouldn't have to wait.

It was my first acceptance and I told my parents right away,

Now one college and the worrying is out of the way!
