“I got into my dream school but can’t afford it.”
-I never understood why some are applying where they cannot afford to attend. What is the reason? It is not possible that young person is soo inflexible, it feels like great brainwash done to a kid to make sure that only one place is a dream. Don’t they understand one truth - the experiences at college and beoynd will depend on a student and not the place. So, have a list of affordable places where you have a high chance to get accepted and a great chance of being happy for the 4 most important years of your life and have an attitude: “I will do fine anywhere”. Those who did, succeeded.
