<p>Prior to Katrina, I didn’t qualify for any need based financial aid. Even though my family has suffered a loss of a house, property, and funiture, I do believe we might be back to normal by the time I start college next fall. Should I try for need based scholarships or do you think it will be a waste?</p>
