Forty-five hours a week (did I read that right?) working outside of school is a lot of time. I think you’d be an attractive candidate for a selective LAC like Wesleyan; they want more FGLI kids. And, working to help support your family is as good as a EC as far as I’m concerned. One word of caution: before you get too excited, run the NPC numbers as best you can. Are your parents divorced? Is there a family-run business or a home with a lot of equity somewhere in the mix? All these things can be confounding factors when setting your sights on a private college.
