<p>hi i have major dilemma here and i desperately need some real advice
my mother was diagnosed with cancer so i decided to stay with her instead of going to college
the good news is mi dad decided to help me out but i missed the deadlines for most of all the colleges
im wondering if i have any chance if i apply now
my gpa is 3.7 and act 33 w/o writing and i've participated for olympiad for two years(placed 4th), did Interpreting volunteer for ngo, been orchestra
or should i just go to cc and transfer? Help !</p>
<p>Ask your counselor what schools are still accepting applications. You won’t have much luck with highly ranked schools because their apps were due a long time ago. You could always take a gap year and explain that in your essays.</p>
<p>actually im in out of country so none of mi counselors know anything about us colleges
btw im us permanent resident not int student</p>
<p>If you’re looking at top schools, a gap year might be the best option</p>
<p>Do you want to be in college in the US this fall, or is a Gap Year OK with you and your family?</p>
<p>Do you need financial aid?</p>
<p>Do you have a state in the US where you would be considered an in-state resident?</p>
<p>What does your immigration lawyer recommend about how often you need to return to the US, and how long you need to stay here, in order to maintain your permanent resident status?</p>
<p>All of those will affect your options. EducationUSA has offices in most countries around the world. Get in contact with the counselors at the advising center closest to where you live, and ask for their help. If they haven’t worked with any US citizens or permanent residents lately, they have colleagues in another office who have. </p>
<p>Wishing you all the best.</p>
<p>thank you all you’ve been real help :></p>
