How Can I Solve This Problem?

<p>^Whoops… sorry about that.</p>

<p>Okay</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Have no financial need (just believe me on this one), so I would be relying on parental payment for many places. However, I would be more than willing to get a part-time job or two in addition to my savings. That would bring total parent cost down to $70,000 at most, which is still a ton. I could see problems here, but this is less than tuition at the state university which they offered to pay in full. They have not stated how much they will be willing to pay toward another university.</p></li>
<li><p>Basic stats are:</p></li>
</ol>

<p>31 ACT/2100 SAT</p>

<p>3.65 GPA (no weights at my school)</p>

<p>Toughest curriculum available, has gone above and beyond with AP self-study</p>

<p>Top 20% in microscopicly small class (less than 90)</p>

<p>5 - AP Human Geo
4 - AP Gov
4 - APUSH
3 - APWH</p>

<p>God-Awful SAT II’s</p>

<p>Good extracurrics </p>

<ol>
<li>I’ve tried asking whether they care about further away colleges, and they say no at first, then they nit-pick whatever place that I like. For instance, I really like Bucknell because it has the small atmosphere I’m looking for, but they thought it would be less reputable because it doesn’t have a “business school”, just business degrees. I’m doing business/engineering double.</li>
