I am trying to decide where to go to college. I have decided on what I want to go for. I am planning on being a creative writer but sadly most of the colleges in my area don't offer any classes for that and those that do are not for degrees. I am thinking about going out of my county for college (I live in Michigan, in a big city), but I am concerned about leaving behind the support network I have here. All of my family lives in my county as well as most of my friends. My treatment team is based in this county and I don't really want to lose them. Another issue is my family. There are a lot of health problems right now and if I do move out there I will be at least and hour away. I don't drive so I would be stuck relying on my family to come and get me and I wouldn't be able to support my family. One big issue is that I don't have the funding. The schools that I am looking at are universities and I just don't funding. I have a two year scholarship to any place but after that I would have to rely on grants and loans and scholarship awards. I am scared because without my support net, I might not even get through the first year. I have never been alone without any support before, and I know I will have you guys, but its still hard to imagine that I will be alone once again. I have people relying on me though. I am contemplating just taking some classes and using a connection to get published. Please give me some advice.
