Working 29 hours a week sounds like a lot for a full-time student. I personally don’t know anyone who is working more than 20 hours, but it can probably be done if you are willing to sacrifice everything except for work and studying.

Don’t be fooled into thinking you will have a lot of free time in college because of the little in-class time. Overall I spend more time on academics in college than I did in high school, even though I am only in class for half as long. College class time also comes less “bundled” than high school class time. In college, you might have have class 10-11, 11-12, 2-3 and then a recitation 6-7.
