You sound mature. Best wishes on all this.
Be aware that your target college ideas will evolve in the next year-plus. Separate from your personal needs, you want the right academic and EC preparation to apply. You can look into some of this now, get an idea what the colleges expect, academically, and in terms of activities and personal attributes.
@lookingforward Thank you! I’ve been considering what my colleges and major will want- that’s why I’m throwing boarding schools into the mix, cause not only will they relieve me socially but also will give me more opportunities education wise.
I do think maybe graduating early and enrolling in community college could be an option, if you can find the right rigorous courses and the prep school doesn’'t work out. You’d apply to a four year as a transfer. But let’s see how your options develop.
Indiana has a Guaranteed Transfer program, see if that’s feasible. Of course this is a lot to figure, at this point, but your personal needs are important.
@lookingforward I had been thinking of going to my local public uni after graduating early but CC would probably be better, I don’t know why I didn’t just default to that lol thank you!
