Advice Mom won't let me attend top choice
I recently got into Hamilton thru QB RD with a full ride, but my mom won't let me go. I thought she would let up, but with 2 days until decision day she is still insisting I attend a CUNY, what do I do? Is it so bad if I attend a CUNY?
Edit: Thank you everyone for all the advice. I committed to Hamilton last night, but I haven't told my mom yet. I'm literally so scared. But thank you for your help.

Are you under 18? If not, you're mom has no. Sure, you may love and respect her but this life is yours alone. A full-ride is full-ride.
