<p>fort lewis college</p>

<p>Have you considered Montgomery college? It’s classes are much cheaper than anything you’d get at those universities, and in two years you’d transfer to UMD.</p>

<p>Just apply to all of the Maryland state schools, see where you get in and how much each will cost, and go where you won’t accumulate too much student loan debt.</p>

<p>You can also try using the CC Supermatch to find schools where your GPA and test scores are good enough for admission. Then you would need to see whether or not these schools are likely to give you enough financial aid to make it possible. Often the schools with the best financial aid are the ones that are the hardest to get in to as well. Less selective private schools **usually **can’t afford to offer a lot of financial aid. But it is worth researching if you want.
Your state colleges and universities will probably be your best options.</p>
