James King
Higher Education

• All is not lost, remain focused on what you want to do and get researching!
Contact Original Choices
• Contact Universities – get on the phone and find out exactly why you were rejected, look for improvement opportunities.
• Make Your Case – this is a great opprtuity to sell yourself further, make sure that you don’t miss this finite moment and grasp it with both hands
Positivity Prevails
• Be Positive – remain positive in your quest, do not give up and remain positive.
• Positive people achieve superior results, this is not a blow, this is an opportunity to prove your worth so go forth!

First Come First Served
