Okay, I would like to go to either Yale (first choice) or Brown (I'm currently a high school junior). I know that it will be difficult to get in, but I'm also worried about finances. I know that both have need-blind admissions, but even if I were admitted, I doubt I could pay.
My family makes less than $20,000 a year (there are four of us). Many people have said that I could apply for financial aid, but I don't know if I would get it. I am searching for scholarships, and I am planning on getting a job about a month after I turn 16 (I am planning on getting my permit first). Is there anything else I can do? Do I have a shot at financial aid or any other type of assistance? If worst comes to worst, I am sure I can go to a community or state college, but I don't want to give up just yet.
Thanks so much!
