@Melaniesdad Well I guess, technically-with everything added-we are living off $20,000/yr. I’m not really sure what colleges need me to explain. I mean we are very thrifty and never spend money on anything unnecessary, but other than that I wouldn’t know what else to say.
@mommdc Thanks for the advice! I talked to my dad and he says he doesn’t see a point in applying for the free health insurance for my sister and I right now because he says that when he gets his business started in a month, we won’t qualify for it anymore. Also, besides one public state school I applied to, all the other colleges I applied to meet 100% of demonstrated need so hopefully I can still attend college.
