Should I be worried about living off-campus?

I'm a high school senior who is planning to attend the University of Florida, but the housing waitlist has filled up. Off-campus housing available does not necessarily seem too bad, but I'm still a little bit nervous.

Given that my hours at PetSmart have been drastically reduced to just one day every other week after two years of employment, am I eligible for unemployment benefits, and could you offer any advice or support as I navigate this situation? I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to reach out for some guidance regarding my current work situation. I’ve been working at PetSmart for about two years, but recently my hours have been drastically reduced — I’m now only scheduled to work one day every other week. This sudden change has had a serious impact on my income and overall stability. I’m trying to understand if this situation might make me eligible for unemployment benefits, and more importantly, I would appreciate any advice or support you could offer as I navigate these changes and plan my next steps. Thank you so much for your time and help. Best, Danielle ?

As a senior in high-school, I've decided that I'd like to pursue the pre-med route in college; ultimately I'd like to become a pediatric neurologist. However, recommenders have advised majoring in courses other than biology, for instance, to avoid "looking like everyone else."
