It’s a little harder for me to get financial aid because of “need”.



I shall agree with you, with some reservations of course, on this point. However, as a middle-class student, there are multifarious scholarships available for you to apply to; justadream92’s post shows some of these. I applied to the Ron Brown Scholar program, and although I did not advance to the finalist position - I am sure my essay writing quality had more to do with this than my parents’ income - it is one such example of an opportunity for middle class students to gain money.
