1)According to the situation stated before, the best option for Alicia to prepare for the meeting with her boss might be B (Plan to discuss the ways attending college is helping Alicia be better at her job): In this way, she and her boss will be able to make the best out of the situation. Both can express what they think and come to a conclusion together. Her boss might think that she can handle the responsibility because she is capable of it but he/she might not realise that Alicia is a bti overwhelmed. So a good conversation about this problem might bring a positive outcome.   2) If one of the possibilities is for her boss to be angry or resentful because of Alicia's requirements, the best option to deal with it could be B (Alicia should be prepared with a list of suggestions for how she thinks parts of her workload might be reassigned), So the boss can see that she is interested in improving the situation without causing any trouble, she is willing to propose ideas because she wants to keep on working there. 
3)If her boss refuses to reduce her workload, she might take a difficult decision. She should think what is more important, at this point, to her, whether it is work or school. If she decides that work is more important, than , option D (Explore the option of reducing her course load at school or reducing her work hours) would be appropriate. She will continue working there and start school as she wants to do. but if studying is more important, the best option would be A (quit her job). She can start school without a problem and later on, find a new job that allows her to study.
