@Slavic2000 Congratulations on Questbridge. Your nex step is to apply to be a Questbridge college applicant. Even if you are not named a “Finalist” and matched later in the Questbridge application process, many colleges which partner with Questbridge will still reach out to you. So participating in Questbridge will expose you to many top colleges.
Also, starting December 2017, College Board made free the sending of SAT scores for low income students. https://www.collegeboard.org/membership/all-access/admissions/college-board-announces-unlimited-sat-score-sends-low-income There is no limit to this free service. So you could apply to many colleges free.
Your list did not include Pomona College, a top small liberal arts college near Los Angeles. Although it is a reach school for everyone (admissions rate was 6.9% this past spring), they do make an extra effort to find a wide diversity of applicants, including low income. See this article about their efforts: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/17/us/affirmative-action-college.html?emc=eta1 They flew in for free a top candidate. Pomona College is extremely well-endowed and thus is able to offer very generous financial aid. https://www.■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■/college-rankings/details/EndowmentPerStudent
Avoiding debt is a great idea. Who knows what will happen after you graduate; if you can’t earn enough post graduation to repay your debt, you will have a large financial burden hanging over you. Of course I hope for the best for you, but I’ve read too many stories of students who sink deeper and deeper into debt post graduation. They can’t find well-paying jobs; instead they cobble together a variety of part-time gigs that together do not meet their livings costs. Students debt can haunt you for and event past your lifetime, unless other forms of debt. Community College then transfer to college/university is far more preferable than avoiding college altogether. Good luck to you.
