<p>I remember you. Your persistence is very impressive!</p>
<p>I’m guessing that the school that you are currently in is limited in how far you can go and in the pace. I think that you have to consider the possibility that you will not get financial aid and in addition to applying to the needs-blind schools above, you may need to just go to a very inexpensive but high quality college. </p>
<p>I looked up small catholic universities in Florida, and the least expensive one had a tuition that was around $17K. If you could find a school that would prepare you for graduate school but would cost around that amount, could you find a way to do it if you had to?</p>
<p>I went on collegeboard.com, put in 4-yr, and OOS tuition less than 15K and looked for schools that I’ve heard of:</p>
<p>I found 3 that have tuition, room and board for under $20K. </p>
