Title: I was not accepted or called...
Post by: idee on October 16, 2012, 01:59:25 pm

I applied to a school and called the admissions rep. She never called me back. She looked down on me after I said I was HIV positive. Said that a couple of people have walked in there in the past but did not look as healthy as me.
That they were skinny and looked sick.
I am attending a different school, not based on this compaint above but on the fact that I would pay $44,000 and still need to go to a college after the medical institute.  I am looking forward to the next school which is actually a college. I am going for diagnostic medical sonographer. Basically I would do sonograms, echocardiograms and such.
I have a ton of studying ahead of me and most of it is science. But my family is very supportive and encouraging so I will be able to do it.
