If you want ot go to some collage for two years before you choose a major, then go to community for two years. It's cheaper and it dosn't look any worse on your resume. Plus, it's closer.
Then after you get the crap out of your way (For those who don't know, the first two years of collage is just generic acedemics, like math, history, science, etc, and usually isn't directly related to your major) then you transfer to a better school.
And, if you've already been in collage, you are more or less able to get in accepted in to any collage. They see that and they're like "Ok, he's been through it all".

It is a private college, which explains the cost. As for the dream bit...I honestly don't know what I want anymore. Not like Al with his art, or Dan with his computers. I want to truly know where I'm headed before I move to Miami.

I asked those same questions myself a long time ago. I got annoyed with everyone asking what i was going to be when i grew up, so i (finally) settled with art, as you can all see. And why do you want to live so far away? As for the scholarship, its the Bloomfield College Trustee Scholar Award -- "in recognition of demonstrated academic achievement deserving of this award". Pretty cool considering i didn't know it existed. I didn't even sign up for anything either. I just...got it

TCNJ isnt that tough to get into -- as long as you have decent grades. Although I still haven't gotten their reply to my application yet... But I'm already going to Bloomfield
