<p>hii my name is Marga and I want to go to college, hence I am at this website. problem is, I don't know where I want to college nor am I sure of what I want to study. I am not even sure at what college I want to go too (big, small) ... I have problems with money but I don't think I would qualify at financial aid (83k a year for family, only child)...
I am considering to major in psychology and minor in business or major in journalism... maybe I will go the med school path but I am not very sure. Maybe I will do linguistics.
I am trying to find match/reach/ safeties. Some ideas are Rice, University of Texas at Austin, A&M, and trinity. I live in Texas..</p>
