<p>^But those require deposits
Carleton - $500, with $250 nonrefundable if accepted. Rose Hulman - $100…
And I am already helping in a research lab right now. I just really want to travel and experience a little “independent college life”… for free 
I initially had Cornell College Summer Program as my safety. But my dream was crushed upon discovering that they only offer aid for half of the program cost ($10000)

<p>Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated</p>
