@DemonAir You probably are wrapping up your semester soon. Finish up as strongly as you can.

Do you have any ECs right now besides work? Work is a good one - I am just trying to think of ways to spin the whole leadership etc that colleges like to see.

I found a college with no foreign language requirement. They do have a full tuition scholarship for transfers but it is not guaranteed. In your life is there “service to the community”?

George Washington Carver Fellowship – This scholarship is named in honor of George Washington Carver, who attended Simpson College. It is one of the most prestigious academic awards offered by Simpson College. The Carver Fellowship ranges from 3/4 to full tuition. This scholarship is awarded to outstanding freshman and transfer students from distinctive and broadly diverse backgrounds, who exhibit potential for leadership, evidence of service and contribution to community and superior academic achievement in secondary school.

room and board is then $8000. Student loan plus savings from work - that might be manageable even if they don’t offer additional financial aid.

The program I volunteer for has 2 students attending now. The student population is over 40% first generation and they do a great job supporting them academically.
