<p>Well I just had my meeting with my guidance counseler about college choices and where i was thinking about going and she basically said my main problem was i couldn't realistically afford anything.
It's a long story, but the main point is i have $0 dollars to work with when i go to college, which is a huge problem i have never really considered.
My guidance counseler said the best thing to do would be to "aim low" when picking out colleges so they'd have a bigger financial aid packet to present me with to get me to go that said college.</p>
<p>I'm a junior, with a 92.85 GPA (got into an accident towards the end of first semester junior year and screwed up my grades, ended up getting 3 B's, 4 A's and the worst report card of my high school career.) I've made Principle's List twice, recieved awards in English sophomore year and Algebra I freshman year (just some school thing, like for special recognition.) This year I'm taking 2 AP's (English and U.S. history) and next year I will be taking 4, AP Psychology, AP Comparative Politics, AP Euro, and AP English.
The Only Extracurr. i have to date are Green Club, NHS, and French Club, and about 36 hours of community service to date.</p>
<p>Based on this, what colleges do you think would offer me the best type of financial aid to go to their school, because like i said, i am literally working with $0 when it's time for me to leave for college.</p>
