<p>I'm graduating this summer as a junior so I don't have a senior year course load. I plan on volunteering a lot this summer and using my year off to work and volunteer.</p>
<p>NYU is at the top of my list but I know it's unlikely to give me the financial aid I need. I'm also looking at the University of Washington, UVA, VCU, CUNY Hunter, and CUNY City College. Additional suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! </p>
