<p>I'm just trying to plan ahead.. nothing makes me more uncomfortable than talking about money, even with the most laid-back family members. It's just so distasteful for me. But, hey, if he can pay, I think he would. He payed for many college tuitions.. even people he's not related to! So he would probably be okay with his granddaughte rasking for BS tuition help? I don't know. I hate money.</p>
<p>OMG I love you blairt!</p>
<p>You share a very common characteristic as myself!!!</p>
<p>I NEVER ask people for money, never have, never want to. I feel so guilty! I hate money!</p>
<p>Even if it's my mother or father, I hate to ask them even for money to go to the movies or something!</p>
<p>Many people at school ask for lunch money, yet I would never dare to ask anyone. It just feels weird.</p>
<p>If I were you, I would wait for the rest of your decisions...</p>
<p>You're bound to get into somewhere...</p>
<p>If the F.A. was less than your parent(s) expected, get a job. For Andover, I got zip FA. My parents are never going to be able to pay it. I want to go so bad I am going to give them all my money from working at my dance studio, and I also am going to work three jobs over the summer which should get me about 4g... My friend's mom owns a Dunkin Donuts that I am going to work at, I am going to be a 20hr a week babysitter each week, and weekend job at a local hospital. If you want it bad, find ways to make money. Rely on your grandfather last, but he may come in handy.</p>
<p>Hey! You're not asking him for some money to buy pot, it's to get a great education!</p>
<p>Good luck...</p>
<p>aww man, srry to hear u didnt get into SPS or choate. AHHH this is making me very nervous indeed- :( goodness, and ur stats were quite amazing to say the least. </p>
<p>shoot, if choate and SPS didnt accept blair, guess that jsut goes to show u how hard it is to get infor 11th. ugh, this is ridiculous, it really is. >.<</p>
<p>I'm sorry Blairt. Hopefully you'll get in somewhere...</p>
<p>You seem like the type of person that the school needs, but if there's only few, limited openings, I suppose they go for the very wealthy, URMS, legacies, recruited atheletes and such before you.</p>
<p>That's just too bad. =/</p>
<p>Good luck with Andover, I'm sure they'll accept you...</p>
<p>Depending on the school an application for financial aid make it harder for you to gain admission. I don't think any of the preps are "need blind"</p>
