What if I can't go to my dream college because 1.) I need to go to one in my area first and 2) The college is far away from where I am (which is why number one is included)?
Should I, if it's an option, find a way to stay in touch with them even when I'm at the other college to show them I'm still interested, or should I wait until my time there is over and then just transfer to my dream college and take the courses I want to take there?

Do I have a chance in college?
I been asking a lot about college applications and I'm still not sure if I want to reveal my real life story or choose something safe - yet unique to stand out. My unweighted GPA is a 3.3 while my weighted is a 3.7. I haven't done any extracurricular until my junior and senior year due to unfortunate events that happened in my past. But now that I am a senior, I been trying to force myself to grow. I'm currently a student ambassador at one of my schools, and I plan to join Deca.. and I gotten an internship for the same school I'm an ambassador for. Compared to other kids my age - my life feels so.. bleh. I just now started a Youtube channel to add as something I've done. But I'm worried I won't stand out at all. I need someone to be blunt with me, do I stand a chance in college?
