as a fellow senior, this month has been absolutely brutal. trying to be happy for your friends, while also trying to take care of yourself is possibly the hardest thing. and you know everything is going to be fine, but getting those rejections still hurt. i’m so proud of you for everything and i’m so excited to see where college takes you. this college chapter is so scary but also so exciting. sending you love 🩷

Hi I’m a year 8 student and I’m just wondering if my grades matter for uni this year. I’ve been rly worried and all I care abt is getting into a rly good uni tysm

[@haii1120]

rejection is actually so hard and it hurts so bad. I am such a believer in that rejection is redirection. You put everything into your application and even though you did not get in its completely okay. Youre going to end up exactly where you are supposed to and go through everything that you need to in order to be successful. I'm from Canada and I have many friends who didnt get into a lot of programs they hoped to and they now realize why they got rejected in terms of it being redirection. A lot of my friends who got rejected from programs they thought were perfect allowed for them to go through completely different experiences and see what they love and what they want to pursue. A perspective they would have never had if they went to the program that they wanted so much :))

[@DominantBtch]

That's sounds so deep and traumatizing lol

[@dathunderman4]

Acting like someone died. Stop being married to a particular school in the first place, especially when the chances of you getting in are extremely slim to begin with. If you were to put your entire future on something with like a 8% chance of failing, everyone would call you naive. But with colleges people seem to forget this and inject their whole identity into a school that probably won’t even accept them.

[@breannaringle3200]

It’s not dramatic to feel that way, anytime you have to put a dream to bed or if it drastically changes and you feel like you’ve done everything you can it absolutely feels like a loss. However, it won’t be long until the new picture comes into focus and I’m wishing great things for you!

[@anonymouslyinquisitive1040]

hey nicole, i'm a c/o '20 spartan and i just wanted to commend you for your transparency in sharing with your followers the honest pain of rejection. i think many people may compare themselves to you and see your life through rose colored lens. you're immensely hard working in everything you do and it shows - from extra-curriculars, youtube, and school. you have been building a killer resume from such a young age and you do it all with such a positive attitude. seeing someone so amazing and overqualified as you get rejected from top schools lets a lot of your supporters take a breath and say, 'ok i'm not the only one. it's not that i'm stupid or not good enough. if someone like nicole got rejected that means its not necessarily my fault.' college admissions are freaking horrendous and all you can do is try your best and move on. your example of balance, of friends, family, a relationship with God, and trying your genuine best w/o losing yourself is one that more young people need to see. its not one i saw when i went to south. people were so tunnel visioned in getting that into that prestigious school that people forgot to live and be kind and genuine people. your genuineness and killer work ethic will take you a long way, wherever you go. you can always apply to transfer to ucla if that's your dream, but honestly, you don't want to be around a bunch of stuck up elites anyway. they truly do not deserve you. continue loving God and loving people. He works all things for your good. i'm so immensely proud of your maturity at such a young age and am grateful that the next generation has at least one level-headed person to look up to you. all of your videos are such great quality and so genuine. its not just about clicks you actually care about being like a sister to your viewers and making the most of your life and it shows. you have nothing to be ashamed of and everything to be proud of. you are beautiful + amazing! if you read to the end of this message, im sending you a big hug and lots of love. stay grounded, humble, and loving + keep looking up

[@margot_readsss]

getting accepted to even five colleges is a huge achievement, you should be so proud of yourself!! love ya

[@Sinyyynn.]

The way her mom was concerned during all the reactions n that side eye she was giving to her dad indicated that she’s gonna be heartbroken when she gets rejected 😭😭 that’s so cuteee..love to mama laeno🫶💕

[@looksssogood5781]

For the people that say that she could transfer to UCLA after a year or two. She could, but her fan base is making it harder and making her look bad rn. Commenting on UCLA social and harassing them. Making other people (students) of their acceptance video about Nicole and just again hating on them bc they got into UCLA. Her fan base is making her look bad and could potentially not be accepted to UCLA in the future bc all of this

[@SecretSurname]

Yeah agreed, they need to chill with that. We all want to support Colie, but vitriol and spite attacks are not the way to go about it.

[@raeinwriting2474]

Thank you someone finally said it

[@secretlifeoflexi.]

REAL. they’re making her look terrible.

[@lilianlopez23]

exactly, if she does well right now she could easily transfer to ucla as they have a high transfer acceptance rate. This could just ruin it.

[@JefriahA]

Totally!!!!

[@mimyczs]

Ucla is a very hard school to get into, it’s acceptance rate is literally a single digit. Just because Nicole is a popular youtuber, and her viewers, including myself, can see how hard she worked to try and guarantee a spot, that doesn’t automatically mean that she should’ve gotten it. Thousands of applicants apply with the same stats as Nicole, some higher and some lower, so just because we can see that she’s studied hard for good grades, and she’s participated in many events that the school has hosted, who are we to assume that all of the other applicants haven’t done the exact same? God has a plan for Nicole, and that’s why she was accepted by sdsu and decided to go there instead. Do you think leaving hate comments on ucla’s Instagram and other social networks will benefit Nicole or you?

[@buterabae7123]

Real

[@nailasymmone]

This needs to be pinned

[@dearestwhispers]

[@shinyeee1709]

It also depends on the major too. I graduated from a small hs in the Central Valley (graduating class of about 100 students) & 3 got into UCLA (2 for nursing). It honestly a limbo even if your gpa & extracurricular activities are stacked. The odd way to get in if you really want a specific school is to apply for a major that peaks your interest but isn’t as popular & then change it once you get in your 1st year

[@SomeOne-ry6qo]

Well said🙌

[@cherrycolaontop]

okay i wanted to address something, i love collie and i’m upset that she didn’t get into her dream school but some of her “fans” are commenting on ucla’s page and also on videos of people that got in, that nicole deserves the place, i know it’s for support but it’s making nicole look bad and other people look very undeserving. please stop commenting on other people’s posts update: collie posted a video asking not to do it but people still don’t understand. even ucla’s bereal account is full of comments about nicole

[@chaiboix]

Well UCLA has a 8.6% acceptance rate so it’s hard to get into, we also don’t know her scores/grades other influencers and celebs apply too it’s unfair

[@callbyname3856]

well it doesn’t matter if you are an influencer or not, they look deeply at your application from grades, essay, extracurriculars, leadership, etc. UCLA is a highly hardest, most competitive & academics school ever

[@omggitsnoor]

i totally understand and get that but it's a really competetive college to get into, plus the acceptance rate is 9%. not only that but so many students apply literally every day.

[@akshs9085]

girl, UCLA does not want free advertisement, they're one of the top schools who want actual academically talented ( or other fields like sports) students, accepting an influencer with average grades over a kid who worked their ass of to get good grades and do extra curriculars is just unfair

i’m currently a sophomore in college and i experienced the same heartbreak as colie did when she got rejected to her dream school, cuz i also got rejected. even when i watched her cry because of the rejection letter, i can’t help but cry as well because i remember the feeling of getting rejected into something that you’ve already planned your future in. it just changes the trajectory of our lives. but now i’m really happy in the uni that i’m in, and i can really say that it all works out towards the end.

To the people commenting on UCLAs page y’all do realize this is real life? It’s not like fast food places or other places you go and spend money on. Y’all are doing more harm than good. I understand you want to help but this is between her and the colleges. She allowed y’all to view her life but not to get in her business.

girl when u described the feeling of college rejection from ur dream school as heartbreak, i couldn't agree more! i was rejected from my dream school two years ago and i was down for such a long time, but now i see why that needed to happen because i know i'm where i'm supposed to be. you are not defined by college admissions, they're brutal, but you are so strong and beautiful and intelligent in so many ways. a college application can't see all that, but the ones who truly know you do. i'm so proud of you!!

[@kristelleetmbl]

as a fellow senior, who had such a hard time during the college apps process, i’m here to say that everything truly is in God’s plan for us. from the nights i spent crying, or stressing out about application deadlines, to anxiously awaiting the decisions and getting them back, i could finally say that all the hardships, the tears, and the anxiety that i felt during this period was one of the most difficult things that i’ve went through so far in life. but, i have to say, that i have grown so much during this period, and truly, you really do not know the emotions and hard work that goes into this whole process until you’ve gone through it yourself. congrats on your acceptances, i can’t wait to see what’s in store 🫶🏻 sending love from a fellow c/o 2024!

Nicole, I am a successful doctor who has been blessed to study at many world-class institutions throughout the different phases of my career. I have seen it all. What I’ve found is that the MOST important things in this world are a firm relationship with God and a loving family. You already have both. These things are rare, and more precious than an acceptance letter from any competitive institution. I’m in my 40s, and I routinely watch your videos for inspiration and upliftment. You seem to have a brilliant mind and a kind soul. For these reasons, you will live a happy and prosperous life-I promise. Now take that, UCLA! Be blessed, young one 🙏🏾

Aside from that I am sooo happy for you and proud of how far you’ve come and how you still got accepted into so many other collages and was able to find the right one for you, ilysm colieee

[@marthaz5785]

When I saw you tear up at the UCLA decision I felt that feeling through me. I know how upsetting it can be, but I truly believe God knew the path for you and knew that another school was in store for you. So happy that your brother comforted you!!

[@QuineciaKordom]

christian is THE brother!!! the way he comforted her IMMEDIATELY! love him.

[@ramyapatil5438]

I feel you so bad girl.....like I'm literally shedding tears for you after going through through same thing. It's like I'm back in front of my laptop. It is worse than heartbreak. My prayers are with you. You'll do great wherever you are ❤

[@bfromtheP]

Colie! I was rejected from my "dream school" in 2019... 4 years later I am now graduated from college and thankful knowing that God placed me where he knew was best for me, rather than where I THOUGHT was best for me! All this to say I wouldn't change a thing. SDSU is so lucky to have you, can't wait to see you thrive! Rooting for you all the way

Sometimes a closed door is God’s way of guiding your steps to a bigger opportunity. We can only see a small glimpse of what’s on the other side. I have no doubt in my mind Nicole about the greatness your future holds. Your tears of sorrow will turn into joy and we must embrace both the beautiful things in life and the ugly things in life. I never really comment but with the small chance that you see this I love you girl keep striving to be your best self 💕

[@cambri_xo]

the way i started sobbing when you starting crying about ucla😭 i felt like i was heartbroken too bc everyone knows how much you love ucla and how hard you worked for it too😭

[@coliesluvs]

omg, I'm so sorry about the ucla decision. but just know, the college that you go to, is for a REASON. A reason and a plan from God. I love you, Nicole and I am so so so proud.

[@sselammm]

Your rejection is not a reflection of any fault or shortcoming from you, you are truly one of the best, disciplined, hard-working, and most genuine and purest person I’ve seen ever. Never have I been moved by someone else’s emotions like I have yours, but just know that we will love and support you no matter where you go. You have so many great things in store at SDSU I know it and the world knows it. You will thrive at SDSU, God-willing, and I hope the fact that God will deliver you from your heartbreak to joy and acceptance in the story that He has written for you with your best interest in mind will bring you peace of mind. I’ve also struggled to come to peace with college decisions but every day it gets easier when I reaffirm myself in the fact that I’m going where I belong and He knows I will have the best experiences there! WE LOVE YOU and Keep shining and hold your head high so that you won’t miss the good things the rest of senior year has in store and the blessings God has given you and may offer you in life ❤❤

[@totally.not.charrr]

congrats colie! i’ve been watching you since you were my age and you’ve grown so much in the past few years and im so happy that i’ve gotten to watch you along the way. a quote from another youtuber that ill forever stand by, and i hope helps you too, is “whenever you try to plan ahead of time, god laughs” this was gods way of telling you that he will take care of you and be there with you through every step of the way, as will i. i love you so much colie and im so so proud of you.

[@mariahgiselle8932]

I started crying with you when you opened your UCLA letter. I also applied to UCLA which was my dream California school and got rejected so I get how heartbroken you were. Honestly they missed out on such an amazingly talented girl but you'll show everyone the amazing things you'll accomplish at SDSU!! So proud of you colie! We'll live, we'll laugh, and we'll put our trust into God because he does have a plan for us. Let's live up our final moments of high school and we're all so proud of you no matter what colie

Nicole"s mom stressing more than her in the video is literally all moms. Ps: how cute it was when christian hugged nicole . Literally the best brother ❤!

[@hellooo.andrea]

Nicole, I hope you realize that you have accomplished SO MUCH in your short amount of time in school. You are not even in college yet and you have had a multiple of God given opportunities that students who go to college wish they could do with a degree. I know it seems like the world has caved in on you but you have lived and accomplished so much more than any degree could ever give you. Schooling is important but it does not define you. What you feel is sooo valid yet be proud of who you are and what you have done so far because you aren't common, you are the exception

[@I.S.A.B.E.L.L.A.A]

Nicole we are here with you no matter what college you go to it doesn’t define you. God has another plan for you!! I am proud of you and the way you handled this painful moment. You don’t need a good college to get to heaven 🤍🤍

[@brunagarofalo5927]

Oh girl, I'm a sophomore in college right now and I relieved all my college application process through this video... I also got rejected from my dream school, and was terrified and disappointed my first week of college, but now, two years later, I look back at it and thank God I ended up here. The people I met, the location, everything really does fall into place. I'm wishing all the luck for your first year, not gonna lie, it is miserable for a little bit, it is terrifying, it does feel like the world is gonna end and you don't know anything, BUT, it get's better then it get's great. So be there for it all, all your emotions are valid, don't be too hard on yourself or your expectations throughout these next couple months, and just enjoy this moment in time in your life

[@carolmay4395]

❤ The fact that u stayed positive throughout the whole situation even if u didn't get in to ur dream school just shows how strong of a person u are. Love u and can't wait for college content. And it's so sweet to have ur family beside u through all the process.

I just graduated from SDSU a year ago and I can honestly and wholeheartedly say that it was four of the best years of my life! The school is beautiful, the community is welcoming and each and every one of the staff members and educators there has the best in mind for your future. Congratulations on your acceptance and Go Aztecs!!

colie...I’m genuinely so proud of you for how you took those rejections. Like seriously, u are such a strong girl. I have been watching you since you were in seventh grade, and you are the sweetest and most hardworking girl I’ve ever seen. Your rejection from UCLA was genuinely so shocking to me, you were more than qualified for a spot there. You have been talking about UCLA since soph year, and seeing how heartbroken you were literally broke me so bad. You deserved that place more than anyone. Take this rejection as a redirection. Like you said, God will take the wheel. He has a plan for you, and SDSU will have such a bright future for you, okay? Dont lose hope colie my love, you are going to be just fine. May God bless you sweet girl❤️❤️

Hey Nicole !! I have gone through the same rejection with multiple rejections to physician assistant school . I just got accepted into a nurse practitioner program and currently a top school.

God gives his strongest battles to his strongest soldiers !! He wants us to be happy ❤️ congratulations on your acceptance ❤
