i think your first step should be to look at and seriously consider what it is you want to do, then choose a school based on that decision, and then consider your financial options. there is always a way to make things work out, especially when you dig in and go after it (which is why you have to make a study decision before you can go further)

yeah, i've got to figure out what i want to do first thing... i honestly just don't know though...
