Financial Aid is a huge area of information. You should try to find out what kind of impact it could have on your ability to attend a school. You do not have the time in this activity to find out exactly what all the options are. Below are some sites to use to start gathering some of your information. Nobody goes through life in a vacuum.
School is a continual experience in dealing with various people.
From choosing what type of housing you want to live in and who you want to live with, to having to deal with a professor who's teaching style does not fit your learning style, you will be confronted with interpersonal interactions that you have never had before or had limited options in how to deal with them. It will be your responsibility as the Social Interest area to find out what kind of opportunities and obstacles each school might have. Some of the sites already listed might have some of this information. One of the best ways it can be found would be to contact the school itself. Look for its website or even call the Admissions office and talk to someone.
