My name is Sylvia and I am a senior in high school as well as a freshman in community college. I have been dual enrolled at both schools since I was 15. I did this for a number of reasons. First, to relieve my father of financial pressure, to pick up some college credits, and to gain some college experience. I have a 4.0 at my community college and a 3.3 in high school. My problem is this- I have been accepted to Howard University, however, my father does not have the money to send me. He wants me to continue at my local community college, graduate with a 4.0, and go to an accredited university as a transfer. Should I take out a student loan and go against his will? I want to get out of this controlling and hostile environment at home. I would love to go to Howard this fall, and being a Howard grad himself, I know he wants the same for me. We just don't have the moula and I dont qualify for scholarship money because my SAT scores were slightly below the cutoff. What do I do? :(
