Dropping out of an AP course after being accepted?

Now that I had gotten accepted I wanted to focus more on working. I have 3 jobs currently and I help pay the bills basically. I work 6 to 7 days a week and I’m trying to save up for college as well. I am not confident enough to work this much & maintain a decent grade in AP Stat with 4 other APs. I cannot blame anyone else but myself for taking this many APs this year, but I would just be much happier and this would allow myself to spend more time on my other classes as well.
My counselor was the one who told me to email virginia tech first… She was pretty confident that it wouldn’t matter much but I forwarded the email to her and I’m waiting for her second response to this.

I also feel that Virginia Tech would never give a clear answer to this such as “yes go ahead and drop the class” so this kind of answer was expected and I don’t think it’s fair to rescind my acceptance just because of this one class but of course, that isn’t my decision to make… and I feel that my schedule is still rigorous without this one class.
