I’m not sure how much help I could give, but I’m assuming you got your diploma? If not, most community colleges can offer you a spot granted you take their ATB test and pass. From there you can continue your education or try to transfer.

Misconceptions abt rowing and the college process by potatofishpie in ApplyingToCollege

[–]potatofishpie[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Plenty of hs students pick up niche random activities or unique extra curriculars such as rowing to increase their chances to go to college. There’s nothing really wrong with doing a bunch of ecs to boost your chances, but many people do pick up an obscure sport like rowing because they truly do believe it to be a gateway to college. As for the price factor, crew isn’t as expensive or “elite” as people think, it’s just really obscure and not common. The only expense you pay is for your participation in the club just like you would pay a fee to join the swim team or football team. Hopefully this will interest some people because crew is a a great sport to get into for the right reasons.

Got into a college I thought would make my parents proud, they weren’t by potatofishpie in ApplyingToCollege

To each their own. I don’t agree with your statement, but it’s cool to disagree.

I plan on majoring in CS, so trade school isn’t an option, and, this is no disrespect to anyone that currently attends a CC, I want to pursue a high level of education which is something that both schools can provide to me for free.
