So.
I'm not eligible for YES, but that's okay.
I'm applying to CBYX, due Jan 10th. I have a lot of work to do, since I don't have a transcript or recommendations yet. I'm going to email my teachers for recommendations tomorrow and try to track down the transcript over break.
Also, AFS Speedwell, which had a 60% acceptance rate last year. Pretty amazing, but I'm not counting on being accepted. I had a conversation and argument and all of that lovely stuff with my family today, and I think Turkey's out of the question. I think I'll be applying to Argentina/Portugal/Slovakia/Czech Republic. I'm happy with that, even though there aren't any Middle Eastern countries on that list.
My backup is ASSE Portugal. I'll have to do tons and tons of fundraising for that. Hoping for a scholarship.
