I went to an information session tonight at the Boston Public Library, for applicants and "offer holders" (a.k.a. accepted students in fancy British talk) of the University of Edinburgh.
Now. I am not either one of these things, yet. But I contacted the guy from the International Office because I just wanted to go and he said it was fine. I felt a bit of a fraud, but didn't really care.
It was an interesting presentation and afterwards, I ended up cornering one of the alumni they had there to answer questions. She was a lovely girl from just outside London who'd done her masters in history at UE and I peppered her with questions, poor girl. She was very patient, though, and we chatted until the library staff had taken away all the snacks.
I snapped this photo of the staircase of the gorgeous McKim Building on the way out the door. I'm glad I went, even though I won't be even thinking of applying for a postgraduate program for a couple of years yet. But it's coming (I hope).
