<p>PROLOGUE: </p>
<p>I graduated from high school with a 6.3 weighted gpa and many extracurriculars, but unfortunately my SAT/ACT weren't too incredibly high. My highest ACT was a 25; my highest SAT was 1650. </p>
<p>I was accepted into all the schools in Florida, but I wasn't given financial aid(FAFSA didn't go through). I even applied for ROTC scholarships for the Army and the Marine Corps; that route didn't work out either. </p>
<p>So there I was a senior in high school who was extremely motivated, but no place to go. I was in the delayed entry program for the Marine Corps and my ship date was less than two months away when I got a scholarship for the honors institute at a community college. So i decided to sign up the scholarship which covers all tuition and books.</p>
