Yeah, I don't expect to actually be published by the time I apply. However, if I have established contact with a particular agent or company I should be able to weave that into one of my essays or add it to some part of my application, since colleges usually like hearing about such circumstances. The estimated publish date that I have always envisioned is 2010.
I virtually have no money as well, but I plan on earning a lot of scholarships. I guess I will have to take the rest in loans. :[
But it is great that you found a low-expense college that worked for you! I just haven't been able to find such an opportunity.
2010 sounds like a really realistic date 3nodding And yeah, as long as you find one, it'll most likely make your application stronger, and stand out more. My college was far from inexpensive. Actually, it was up to 33k+ a year by the time I graduated, which, I think is a LOT. I was too lazy and busy to make time for scholarships (no motivation you see, since I couldn't see myself getting one) and since I could scrape by with loans, I did. That doesn't mean I didn't apply for some. I did apply, but I never got any so it was... disheartening. Go for scholarships though, because if you get them, they make your life so much easier. wink
Yeah, scholarships can be discouraging in general. I seem to have some knack with them though; the first scholarship I entered that has proceeded to judging has selected me as a regional finalist, and my entry will now be competing on the national level. I also have some confidence in other scholarships which have yet to announce winners. I know that I will lose many scholarship contests that I've entered, but there are a couple in particular that I am confident about. 3nodding
I'm a bit worried about loans since I hate having debt, but it's all we can do sometimes. 33k+ a year is a lot, which is why $15k a year at Stanford is cheap to me (everyone says Stanford is expensive but it's really not). I'm lucky that I have a $7k account to use for food in my first year (although I got the account because of my mom's death, so I guess that's not really luck at all :X). Butttt, I'm basically expecting that everything will work out if I work hard to meet my goals. xd

I've been busy. Like on Saturday I had DECA state officer orientation then a musical, so I was out from 7:30am to 11:30pm. I have four prom committee meetings this week and prom is on Saturday, on which I have two of the meetings and I need to set up. On Friday I have choir State competition all day. The week after, I will be in Anaheim for DECA nationals, both as a state officer and as a competitor in the Internet Marketing Plan category. Along with that, I am working out, tanning, spending a lot of time on my book, and being active in school and my 7 clubs. Right now I am writing a DBQ essay for A.P. U.S. History. And I'm sick with a bad cold and a fever. So I'm kind of busy. It's fun though. xd
What about you?

15k at Stanford? Is that the full tuition plus room and board? My school was really generous with my aid and I had to take out loans (otherwise I'd paying 5k difference, something I don't have) so the most I had to pay out of pocket is $800. And yeah, I hate debt. And of all times the economic crisis could've happened, it just had to happen right after I graduated.
Good luck with your goals. I'm unsure about my goals right now so I'm basically just floating... which is something I don't enjoy. I need a goal to pursue... career-wise.

Ah, no, that's after financial aid. The original tuition is $40k a year, but the admissions officer told me I would get enough aid from them to make it $15k a year - and that is aid from the school alone.
The economic crisis is unfortunate, especially when you're looking for employment. D: As for a career....just do what you like to do! xp That's how I feel about it. Then again, I like to do pretty much everything. However, in most cases, you should be able to make a career out of at least one hobby you have. For example, drawing could be a career. You could try taking one of those "What career is the right one for you?" quizzes that are floating around everywhere.
