Is your dream the name of the school or the actual experience of being in college where you can develop meaningful relationships and learn some great lessons? Go to the college that will actually fulfill your dreams not some name brand that will do nothing but cost you a lot of money. Even if you go there in the fall you probably won’t get to attend in the spring. Your mom may end up co-signing the fall term but have second thoughts for spring. Don’t make this impulsive emotionally charged choice.
