@Tenjin99 How do you plan to finance your education ?
@carolinamom2boys I’m applying for scholarships as well. And god I didn’t realize missing a Spanish credit would cause me so many problems these days.
Just because you apply for scholarships does not mean that you will be awarded scholarships . Your grades will probably limit merit scholarships. You may have the desire to go to college right after HS, but you don’t have a realistic plan to pay for it. Are you aware that you are only able to borrow 5500 dollars freshman year? Your mother will have to complete the FAFSA in order to be eligible for loans.
@Tenjin99 You need to listen to what people have been trying to tell you on this thread and on your other one. You have more problems with your academic preparation than just a missing Spanish credit, and your family and financial problems just add to those problems.
You build a solid college plan from the bottom up:
A SAFETY plan for you needs to be a cheap and open-admissions college. This would be a community college (either commuting somehow or with a dorm). Unless you have a solid foundation safety plan, you can easily wind up with no place to go. That’s why it comes first. It’s not beautiful. You’ve already told us you don’t like it, but you still need it.
Once you have that, you move on to MATCH plans: A four-year school that offers the physics and pre-calc you didn’t take in high school, that will offer you enough aid to actually attend. Working while going to school fits in here. Starting somewhere you can take foundation classes and then transfer to finish a meteorology program fits in here as well.
Finally, you move on to REACH plans: This is where outside scholarship applications come in, as well as schools that are more of a reach admissions-wise. All your out-of-state applications are reaches, for financial reasons if not for admissions reasons.
Guys I’ve gotten a 19 on the ACT from the February 11 test.
