Why Can't...

Why Can
Posted By: Amanda Dush on June 05, 2005


I am soo upset. I am a single mother of a 4 year old son. I graduate high school at 18 with a 2.89 GPA and everything but I cant recieve ANY money for school. Why can't a female that has over come obstacles that the world expects you to fail get a little slack??? I want to attend Huston-Tillotson SOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad but I have no money for it.



Fasa think smy dad makes plenty!!! I have 8 brother and 8 sisters.... yes 16 B&S no lie or joke. that many you would imagine we didnt have much money to save for college. I am the second youngest; THERE are NO money for college that I can get... Kinda sucks... looks like I am going to have to go to ACC nothin wrong wit it but I wanna do it just like everyone and not settle b/c of my obstacle....
