Am I selfish to want to go to college?
Dear T2T: No one in my family has ever been to college and I would really like to go. The problem is that my family does not encourage this at all and I don’t even know where to start. My grades are decent so I think I would be able to get in somewhere, but my money is super tight. We own a family business and I think my parents think I should just step right into that instead of going to college. I’m torn because I feel obligated to do that for my family, but I really want to go to college too. What would you do? Am I selfish that I want to leave town and do something for me when they need me? — Torn in two
