Notes
TTPB: (MIT Mechanical Engineering Ph.D. Post below) I did the same when I just finished my bachelor's degree. I wanted to go straight to grad school. I didn't apply for 29 programs tho, I only applied to one program and one scholarship. I failed. I moved one. I started to get a small job with a very low salary, then went to a big company job with a high salary. It took me more than 5 years to get back to grad school. Before I got in with full funding packages, I applied to many programs like you, received many rejections and acceptances as well from all over the world. I am the first generation with formal education as well. But, I never bring that card to my admission process or anything. I have dealt with many rejections in my life; admissions, a love-life, identity, social class, job applications, etc. I survive. I guess I am way older than you. If you could, start small and start slowly in anything. Learn to move on. Good luck!
