So I'm a senior in High School and I have been filling out college applications all month. I never though that something could be so stress full as this it seems like the rest of my life sits in the hands of a select group of people.I really want to go to a school out of state but it is significantly cheaper to stay in state so I really hope that I get really good financial aid cause if not I will have to work like 3 jobs just to pay for school( I'm kind of being a bit over hyperbolic). Is it this stressful for everyone when the apply to college or am I just a really unfortunate person :[

Yes, this is stressful for ALL high school students who are trying to go to college right after high school. Welcome to the real world. Yes, you do have to figure out the financial side of college as well as the best or most suitable courses and college. There is a lot to plan for. Most of all, what is your goal? What are you planning to do with your college education? Are there jobs available that need the the college courses and degree that you plan to take? You need to plan even beyond just getting into college - you need to plan what you want to do after you graduate from college.

Hi, newyorker! I really didn't have difficulties in going to College. My problem as just choosing the tight school for the course that I wanted to take. My parents didn't oblige me to look for a job to support my studies. Instead, my dad was offered an overseas job in a Middle Eastern country where he worked as a Laboratory professor. He mad a lot of sacrifice for us and that i am forever grateful for him.

for sure if u choose collage around in your country it going to be more cheaper if your choose out of your country.
im not so sure how your education system there.
for me, if u have good result in high school u can get scholarship,but there are still many thing u need to settle if before u can go overseas.
but i choose to stay here and choose the best university in my country
