H e l p ! I need H e l p!

<p>“Please tell us about anything you regularly do to provide significant support for your family, either by working, by providing care for family members, or through other work that you do at home.”</p>

<p>What is this about ? Do we must feel this out? Is this kind of a short answer ? I really don’t understand how they want me to answer this… I don’t have a part time job and I live in the dorm so I am not even with my family. </p>

<p>H e l p!!!</p>

<p>Do you work to support your family’s income? Is your baby brother or sister a significant time commitment for you (i.e. you spend as much time with him/her as your parents)? Do you care for an elderly family member? Etc.</p>

<p>If not just leave it blank.</p>

<p>^ If I leave it blank, would if affect my c h a n c e s ?</p>

<p>I’m sure most people leave it blank…</p>

<p>If you put something like…I occasionally baby-sit my little brother. That might HURT your chances…</p>

<p>Notice: “Significant support”</p>

<p>Lets say…you worked a part-time job just so your parents could keep up with paying bills. That’s “significant”. If you baby-sat 4 little siblings every night so your single-parent can work 2 jobs…that’s “significant”. I hope you get what I’m sayin.</p>
