- And this is where the decision got extremely difficult.
I chose my final school.
- Hey guys, it's Brooklyn and Bailey.
And before we go on to the video we have some exciting news.
So, once again we ordered a whole new, brand new
set of scrunchies for you guys.
Along with some of the old sets that we have sold, so.
- So, the new colors for the scrunchies are
purple, white, and - And denim, woo-hoo.
- Like this denimy color, which I'm wearing
in my hair right now.
- Literally they're so cute
I though the pink one was my favorite,
and then I thought the yellow one was my favorite,
and now I think the purple one's my favorite.
Or maybe all of them are my favorite, I'm not really sure.
- Anyway, these are all going to be selling at the end
of this video so be sure to stay and check it out.
We are so excited, these are amazing, we love them.
- Woo-hoo, scrunchies for life.
- So, now let's get on to the video.
So, today's video we are announcing which college
we are officially going to next year.
- OMG. - And hopefully
for the full four years of college.
- OMG guys, I know this has been highly anticipated.
Like every comment, every video--
- We've been anticipating it--
- has been asking this question.
- 'Cause we had to make a decision.
And we've been asking ourselves this question for how long?
- Like a year. - Like a year.
Like the past year.
- And the decision has finally been made.
- So, let's find out what it is.
Okay, before we start with anything
I'm just gonna brief y'all.
So Bailey and I both applied to the same six schools.
And we got into the same five schools.
So, we're each separately one at a time going to
go through and kind of list off which schools
we knocked out of our decisions one by one
until we're down to the last two.
And then we'll explain which one we chose and why.
So, I'm gonna go first.
So, obviously the first school I knocked off of my list
was the one school I didn't get into
and that was Stanford University.
So, they have a less than 4% acceptance rate
and I think this year they had the most applicants
they've ever had apply.
- [Bailey] Yeah.
- And it just was crazy.
We didn't get in, I don't know anybody
in our school that got in.
It was just a really, really intense application process.
And I was really sad about it
'cause I wanted to go to Stanford.
But obviously it's not the place for me.
So, this one is off my list.
This is not the school I'm going to.
- And of course, obviously the same goes for me
because apparently Stanford has a twin rule
where if one gets in the other gets in.
And if one doesn't get in the other one doesn't get in.
So, I also did not get into Stanford.
And the same goes, it's only 4% acceptance rate
so I don't know anyone who did get in.
It was really hard this year.
- It was really hard.
- So, this is my very first one that I knocked off my list.
So, I guess it's not meant to be.
- Alright, so the second college
I knocked off my list was UT.
And this wasn't really for any negative, particular reason.
I just went to the campus,
I actually really wanted to go to UT for a little while
because their business school is so amazing.
But I went to the campus and it just didn't feel right.
Like I just didn't, I went and I came home
and I was like that's not the college for me.
And I wish it was 'cause they have such a good
business program but so do a lot of these other schools.
So, UT is the second one I knocked off my list.
- And following Brooklyn, the same goes for me.
UT was my second that I knocked off my list.
And the kinda same idea goes,
I went to the campus,
I was really ready to be excited about it.
I know a lot of people really love UT,
so kudos to you guys who love UT.
- Yeah.
- They have an amazing business school.
- They're a great school.
- But I just you know got to the campus
and you know how people say like you know, you know,
it's like the right college when you get there.
- It just sits with you.
- It's kind of like a wedding dress
when everyone just says oh you just cried when you get--
I mean not the same thing but kinda similar.
Same goes for UT,
I got to the campus and it wasn't feeling right.
So, I immediately knocked that one off the list.
So, UT is not meant to be.
- My third school that I knocked off my list
was Harding University.
Now I actually really, really, really
liked Harding when I went.
And I loved the people there,
and the application process was super easy,
and I had a potential full ride there as well.
So, it was a pretty perfectly set up for me to go.
I just wanted to go to a bigger school
and Harding is a smaller school.
And so, between all my other choices
I knocked this one off my list for that particular reason.
- The next one I knocked off my list,
which is a little bit different than Brooklyn, was BYU.
So, the reason why I knocked this one off my list
and I mean there's not really a particular reason
but it was kind of similar to Brooklyn's
where it was like kind of really far away from home,
and I want to be closer to home
and the rest of the schools were closer.
And plus also, like Harding was really easy to work with
and a bunch of other people were really easy to work with
but we had no communication with people at BYU.
I love BYU, it's an amazing college,
but it just wasn't meant to be.
- Alright well, my next college that I knocked off,
which is a little different than Bailey again, was BYU.
And this was just because we've lived in Utah
for most of our life and I think I wanted
to go to school somewhere different than where I've lived.
And BYU was very much the same as what I've always known.
And I kinda wanted to do something more unique.
And I really love Texas
so I was kinda drawn more to the Texas schools.
And so, for that reason I wanted to be closer to home.
So, my last couple of options fit better than BYU did.
So, I knocked BYU off the list.
- The next one that I eliminated was Harding.
Now, I actually really loved this school,
the campus was beautiful,
and the people were so nice when I went there and visited.
They were super easy to work with,
they offered some scholarships that were really tempting.
So all of it looked like really, really tempting.
The only thing that pushed me away
was that it was a really small college
compared to the other ones I was applying to.
And so, unfortunately that was why this one got knocked off.
But Harding, altogether is a really amazing school.
Okay, so we have obviously a huge favorite
out of these three colleges.
So, we have to say it's time for us
to tell you guys we're wizards and we're going to Hogwarts.
(scratching)
We're wizards and we're going to Hogwarts.
- We've been sorted into Hufflepuff.
- Finally, I just couldn't wait to drink the butterbeer
and play quidditch, and oh my goodness.
- We've already tried out for the team, we're ready to go.
Just kidding.
- Okay, obviously it's not Hogwarts, unfortunately.
- I wish. - I wish.
- If Hogwarts was a real school I would be there--
- That would be amazing.
- In a heartbeat.
- To all of you Harry Potter lovers, that's for you.
- And to all of my fellow Hufflepuff House people out there
we love you, we're with you.
- You're in our hearts.
So clearly, not Hufflepuff.
So now, we're down to our last two colleges
and this is where the decision got extremely difficult.
- So, I'm gonna kind of explain some of the qualities
I looked for in the college that I wanted to go to.
And Bailey's going to explain hers because we did have
our own. - Different opinions.
- Opinions about them.
So, the college that I chose was because I felt at home
when I went there.
And I felt like I had friends and a community
that I could really get involved with, and involved in.
And it had a program that I was really excited about.
And the people there are really excited about me
coming to be in that program.
And I just, I found a room that I loved,
and roommates that I loved.
And everything just seemed to
kind of fall into place, perfectly.
And so, that is why I finally made a decision
on my final school.
- And I really wanted a school that had
like a really good business program.
Something that was very large and homey.
Lot's of students that I could meet.
I was all about the social life, everything
like traditions and all of that.
I was super excited to be a part of.
And I really liked just the fact
that it had a name for itself.
I was really excited for that too.
The community was just really strong.
That's what I was looking for in the college that I picked.
- So, the big question, the big reveal.
I'm gonna reveal first.
- Yes.
- And then she's gonna reveal.
- The question is
are we going to - Are we going to
the same school? - The same school?
- You guys are gonna have to wait and find out.
But I chose my final school, I chose as Baylor University.
And I, when I walked on that campus for the first time
I fell in love with it.
It just felt like home.
It felt like something I could see myself
being at for four years.
And I did have a scholarship there as well.
And their entrepreneurship program
was super enticing to me.
A lot of my friends are going to that school.
I had roommates, I had a room.
And everything just kind of was easy.
And when I made the decision I felt like relieved.
I felt happy and that's kind of like how you know
you picked the right school.
So that was my college decision.
And.
- So you guys, we are not going to be
going to different colleges
because I'm going to Baylor University too.
(cheering)
Yeah, so we both felt the same way
when we got to Baylor's campus.
It was beautiful and it was super friendly.
Everything was so easy.
- And just, and we felt super welcome when we went.
- Yes.
And just like everything was easy
including the application process,
which is supposed to be like--
- Really hard.
The hardest part of getting into college.
- And we had friends that are going
so then we had roommates and then we found a room.
- And they just have like
an awesome entrepreneurship program,
which we're really excited for.
- And we couldn't leave each other so.
- I know, we wanted to go to college together.
- Yeah, of course, of course.
- We thought at one point we were gonna separate
and then we were both like nah, never mind.
We could never do that.
So, we're super excited.
Honestly Baylor gets us really hyped for college.
- And the colors, don't you love the colors.
The colors are just so great.
I know.
- We're both super excited.
So, Baylor get ready for us 'cause we're heading your way.
- Sic 'em bears.
Thank you so much for watching this video.
I hope y'all are as excited as we are
about our college decision.
- Oh my gosh.
- And if you're going through the same process
we wish you the best of luck
and hope that you find the college that's perfect for you.
