What People Get Wrong About First-Generation College Students
#4
Not knowing anything about financial aid.
Being attracted to non-traditional schools because they will hold your hand through the admissions process. The problem with this is that non-traditional schools often lack the accreditation needed for certain occupations, and most American college students (first generation or not) don't really know what accreditation is or how it works.
Not knowing how to select schools, so you select schools you see on TV and web ads.
Not being able to afford SAT/ACT prep and/or not being able to afford to take the exams multiple times to boost one's score.
