| Canjet, let me give you a bit of hope for the future. You may not have been able to afford the college you *really* wanted for undergrad, due to financial considerations. As you have discovered, working hard & doing well in high school do not always lead to a scholarship you want (after all, your dream school may not even offer them!). Good news, though! Grad school offers a whole new opportunity to attend a dream school ... and it can even happen for free!!! There are many opportunities for fellowships & stipends in grad school. If you work really hard in college, making sure to take advantage of what is offered (and seeking out opportunities through relationships with professors), you may very well find that a great grad school opportunity is within your reach. Focus on what CAN be, not what isn't ... and you will find that things will work out well for you. |
