Am I being realistic?

I'm really not looking to go to community college. I know that it will be free but I have had so much pressure on me for so many years to give up so much time and energy to helping my family out that I for once in my life want to be able to put myself first. I honestly think the same thing would happen in Community College that happened in high school, that being that I have to invest so much time, energy, and stress that It had a major impact on my grades.

I honestly don't know what "I'm looking for" in a school. What I do know is that before the virus I got to visit a few colleges and my favorite was UPenn (duh), but I also liked Rowan. I was neutral on NJIT, and really didn't like Seton Hall (its a long list, but I especially didn't like the gated nature, with not that nice surrounding area). I expected to visit more, but obviously, not too likely I'll get the chance.

-I just did a bit of research into the NJ TAG Grant, and it looks like after that…
Rowan - 6k
Rutgers - 5k
Montclair - No Cost
