Basically my mother is no help when it comes to me going to college, she wants what she wants, and will lie to get that.
She wants me at a private school, and to commute.
I would rather board, at a public-it'd cost about the same.
BUT-
She's telling me that if I go to a public college, (we live in CT btw) that I will get almost nothing in financial aid?
I barely understand how it all works to begin with-she is gonna do the FASFA, and will not explain it all well to me.
I'll still apply to more than one school, two private ones it looks like, but will I not be able to get aid that I will not have to pay back, if I go the public route?
It's still quite expensive, as I'm paying for it myself.
Anyone go to public colleges that have comments?
