Special circumstances... too young to take out loans but mom can't co-sign?

<p>UW-M and UCLA are OOS publics…they won’t give you any aid. </p>

<p>*My weighted GPA is 3.8, but my school doesn’t tell us unweighted… I think it’s around 3.5. SAT is 2090, ACT is 31. My financial safety is the University of Illinois-Chicago and I am a legal resident of the state of Illinois. *</p>

<p>Looks like you only have one financial safety school. How do you feel about going there?</p>

<p>With your stats, I’m surprised that you didn’t apply to any mid-tier schools that would give you a lot of merit.</p>
