sry if this is the wrong section, it seemed the best suited to me.
let me begin with, im a 21 year old amputee, i lost my leg due to birth complications (below the knee, right) and ive adapted to it very well, i can
skateboard, run jump play soccer, etc. etc. you name it.. i like to consider myself intelligent (who doesnt online nowadays though) but i made a 26 on
my ACTs straight out of highschool without studying. and got accepted to the University of Michigan (my 1st choice) but couldnt afford it. and at the
time i was 17 and couldnt find any good gov't grants/scholarships to go to school on, out of state ( i live in alabama).
im fascinated my astronomy/astrology, politics, history, and poetry and was trying to decide on a major. id love to do something political, my goal
for going to school is more to learn than to have a degree, as long as im doing something i like doing ill be find with middle class wages, but ever
since i was little ive always wanted to go to UofM and i was wondering if any of you internet Sherlock Holmes could find any kind of scholarships or
grants that pay a full ride that i couldnt find? or if you had any advice for me? what fields and jobs to look towards?
just felt like maybe someone could help me get things on track.
thanks
