<p>Hello CCers
This is my first thread and at the moment, I am pretty desperate. HELP ME FIND A COLLEGE!
I would like to pursue the pre-medical path and specifically major in Bio-Chemistry. I have some family problems and as a result, my parents will not be helping me pay for college. At the moment I don't know where I want to go, but I do know that I will need some help paying for it. I am fine with full rides, partial scholarships, and work study programs. Anything is fine, I just need help finding colleges and scholarships for them. </p>
<p>What I am looking for in an college:
I'm looking for a university that has decent(somewhat prestigious) resources for the pre-medical students but also a campus a party almost everyday. I want to be able to study hard on the week days but then party hard on the weekends. I would like it if there is a decent city near by, however that is not necessary. I am also looking for a college that will give me decent aid - specifically merit. I, myself, can pay up to 20K per year. The weather of the surrounding area I am not too concerned with. Just academics and partying(things to do on campus). Oh, and also girls. I want co-ed. </p>
<p>So a little about myself! </p>
