If you write to the FAFSA folks and explain that your parents can't/won't help you with expenses, you can usually be registered independent, which will save you a lot.

I mean, this kind of a silly question to ask JSP tho, especially without including your state and what school you're attending. You need to meet with a financial counselor wherever you're going to school that can hook you up with this info. But the short answer is that you're probably going to max out your subsidized Stafford loan and then hopefully cover the rest with unsubsidized, unless you can get your parents to co-sign for a parent loan.

Also, if you're getting no help, you should definitely consider taking two years of community college and then transferring to a four year - you'll almost certainly get into a better school than you could have on your merits straight out of HS, and you can pretty much do it with zero loans.

Find the male version site of a Sugar Daddy and make a ton of $$$ for becoming a woman's boy toy.

Also do sexy webcam shows at night for extra $$$

Jill Stein wants to cover existing student debt and make college more available to young people. If we can bail out the banks we can bail out our students.

unless you're attempting to attend a really top tier school (where you would have to pay much more than you should in your situation) this is not really true

as long as you did moderately well in high school getting accepted to virtually every college you apply to is not a big deal
