A/N: I do not own Harry Potter. All I own is my story and the OC's in it.

Acceptance.

In America, it is extremely odd to find an owl in most areas. It is highly unlikely to see an owl drop a letter off at your house in broad daylight, as well as in no light. After the tawny colored creature flew away from my house I jumped up from where I was and ran to the front door. I slammed the door open and picked up the letter waiting for me at my feet. My mail was a thick envelope with the Hogwarts crest and official seal on the back. The Envelope was addressed to me.

During my most recent school year I applied for a chance to study abroad through my academy and Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Since sending in the application, I purchased A History Of Magic and read it twice. I've had dreams of the other school, and what it would be like, who I would meat, and what new relationships I would have with new people. Another exciting factor is the famous Harry Potter attends the school and would be two years under mine.

My hands shook as I walked the envelope from Hogwarts inside to the Kitchen table. The letter was thick and stiff, as if It contained multiple amounts of paper. Hopefully, its thickness meant something positive. I hesitated to break the seal but finally completed the task. I slowly used one shaking hand to pick up the fist sheet of parchment. It was a handwritten letter.

Dear Alphie,

It is my pleasurable duty to inform you of your acceptance into the study abroad program between Hogwarts and your current Witchcraft and Wizardry school. Your OWL scores, grades and behavioral reports certainly exceed expectations. Also, judging by the letters of recommendation we have received, you will certainly be a wonderful addition to our school. Starting off in a completely new place so far along in your education certainly can be difficult, but the students here will be happy to welcome you. As far as education goes, you will be attending sixth year classes which are NEWT level. Attached is a list of books and other school supplies you will require, a permission slip to enter Hogsmeade village once per month, and our dress code. I sincerely hope you enjoy your stay at our school this year.

Professor M. McGonagall

Deputy Headmistress,

Head of Griffindor house,

Transfiguration Professor.

Finally the news I had been waiting to hear arrived. I quickly found the other letters and read through them while constantly beaming. I would be going to Hogwarts, One of the famous schools in Europe.

A/N: Sorry this is so short! I'm sure its longer than the original, but still very short. It's basically setting up what's going to happen for the rest of the story. Exciting stuff doesn't happen until school starts, but I promise to keep it entertaining! I'm rewriting this because I attempted to do it last year and had so many distractions I couldn't do it. I'm giving it another shot, I hope you like it:D

Stay golden,
