[nagdu] GEB application process

[Bridget Walker]

Hi
I went to GEB as well. I started my application in January but, the home interview was in April. This was due to my scheduling conflicts because I was still in high school. GEB had a spot for me in their June class but, I took the July. I had to graduate from high school before I got my dog. :)
