Did it.

Yesterday I applied for admission and was accepted to Foothill College for Winter term. I don't know if I'm going to attend, yet, but if I don't then I expect to be fully prepared for Spring term. It looks like it'll cost me about $100 for four hours of class. I have not yet decided where I'm going to spend my $100, but it'll probably be a Spanish class, a Psychology class or a History class. (Why do class designations here only have one number? Psy8? Is that a first year class? A non-transferrable credit?)
I've emailed to ask about an appointment with an admissions counselor. The hours at Foothill are significantly more flexible than those at SJSU.
