what does this do for leaders?
26-12-2003, 03:09
First, all research done at UA will be made public to the world. So, by contributing the bright minds of your future leaders, you contribute to the growth of world knowledge.

Second, we act as a nice baby-sitting service, so that your spoiled brats don't get in your hair.

Third, it allows you to build contacts and alliances with other nations through your children.

Fourth, and most importantly, you are cultivating the next generation of leadership in your own nation by giving them a world-class education.

OOC: Do I really have to right out essays? Cause I don't have any good spare ones :D.
26-12-2003, 03:37
OOC: You don't need to go over board on the essays. Just a blurb would help.

Zoogies: Although the tuition might be a bit steep for common citizens (1 million USD per student per year), Academear has a strong scholarship program, which allots 5 free slots to each country, so that less priveleged students can add diversity to campus.

Viktor Romanov: let me be the first to congratulate you on your acceptance! It sounds like you will make an excelent addition to our history, english, and military science departments.

All others, be sure to telegram me your applications! While our rolling admissions means there is no rush, the sooner your child starts their education, the better!

Willow (Last name unknown, demon)
Grades: Almost straight A's
SAT: 1560
Description: Second Vice-Ruler of JJR, Willow is much-loved in JJR. She tends to be more secluded than her sister, but still is a bit on the wild side. Like her brother and sister, she has had extensive training as an assassin. She needs more political knowledge, but she loves science and strategy. She enjoys some English, but not a lot. She has helped with the recent IDD (Implosion Devestator Device) invention, which is a new incursion into militarial technologies.

A million a year? Christ...that's like 30 times over expensive colleges in the US. Seriously. I will be doing some files on my students, twenty in total, and you pick five...although I do request you lower your prices a bit to a beareable standard, it's enough living in a foreign country.

"Yo, I got you a school. Academear. Cost like, 1,000,000 USD, so don't kill anyone. Anyway, they look really good. Found a new type of rubber. Sound good?"

"It's sounds cool. They know I'm a demon?"

Steven Lunsford II, the son of our fine president, wishes (or is being forced to, whatever) to enroll in your fine academy.

SAT:1400
Grades:Straight A's (all AP courses)

Steven is a great athlete, but also enjoys learning. His fine academic skills have improved our country, him being a junior tech on our Floating City project. He enjoys tinkering in his own workshop on the grounds of the Presidential mansion. He looks forward to your reply.

Yours Truly,
Ignacio Stasmanolafovich,
Steven's Tutor

Steven Lunsford: Accepted!

So far, our acceptance rate is hovering at 100%. This 'll kill us in US News and World Report rankings... better reject a few Zoogies...

Oh, no, I'm just joking. The enlightened people of Academear would never do something as elitist as that.

To: The Chancellor of the University of Academear
From: Kavish Dendo, Director of Education

The Dominion of Thakan Dar would like to send to the University of Academear, its top 100 post-secondary students, including one Sabian Seven Xalar II, eldest son of the Prime Director.

Average GPAs are a minimum of 4.0 (out of 4), which in Thakan Dar is the equivalent of a 96-100%. Each applicant currently holds at least one degree in their chosen pursuit, but Thakan Dar would like to acquire for its finest minds an international education in the areas of diplomacy and government administration.

As a gesture of goodwill, the Dominion of Thakan Dar has included in this application $20 million USD, in addition to the standard tuitions for 100, with the stipulation that it be used to construct an athletic stadium for the university. Thakan Dar places a high value on the fitness of body as well as mind, and the Prime Director himself is a great fan of collegiate sports.

Awaiting your reply,
Dr. K. Dendo
