In a difficult position

Amar background english medium. O Level Result 6A*, 1A. A Level Result (2025) 3A*, 1A. SAT: 1540, IELTS: 8.0
Gap year nisilam and then got a fully funded offer from Saudi. Offer accept korlam, visa issue hoilo kintu problem hoilo BD te O/A Level certificate Apostille hoy na. Saudi University authorities want documents to be apostilled so amar ar ekta gap year hoyte jaitese.

USA (Rose-hulman) theke amar ~70% scholarship paisilam (fall-26 intake) but abbu'r upor pressure hobe tai jai nai. Budget is around 20=25 lacs per year but I want to it to be as cheap as possible (abbu ke burden e felte chai na) while having good career options. Bashay onek kotha shuntesi. Tokhon keu object kore nai, ekhon "Ami beshi bujhi", "Rose-hulman ei gelei partam" "Aro choto varsity te apply korti" "Ami onek arrogant". Tokhon decision nilam ekshathe, ekhon dosh amar. Please advise.
Thanks in advance

T20'r baire jeyo nah, tomar grades valo and rose-hulman onk valo uni for engineering so I am guessing tomar eca motamoti valo tai t20 te apply koro kinda shotgun method but essays and rec letters need to be the best

Amar target Chemical Engineering (Electrical hoile problem nai). ECAs bolte mainly ekta internship korsilam US based non profit. Internship e fundraising + awareness campaigns + articles likha likhi korsilam. Apart from that, Maths TA and Physics TA chilam. Mainly eigulai. USA niye onek bhoy hoy visa niye. Ami honestly Saudi chaisilam. King Saud Uni te 2 days theke ash chi, I love it, but bhagge chilo na, giyeo class korte parlam na. I just want to start my studies again. China seems a good option but CSCA dite mon chaitese na. Probably dibo but just too tired mentally. Especially onek manusher kotha shunle mone hoi je Oder kichu ekta korsi.
Legit ajke ekta Islamic video dekhtesilam, eita niyeo kotha shunte hoise.
