...HOW THE HELL AM I GUNNA GET TO COLLEGE?! ;_; I have no money, parents won't let me get a job, THEY won't get jobs, I have no savings/trust/whatever, and whatever scholarship I'd do good at currently wouldn't get me into the career I want and need. >_Or maybe all this shit is just confusing me and I actually have no idea what the holy fuck I'm

When you apply to schools, there are extra forms you get/request (depending on the school) and fill out and little boxes to check and whatnot about financial aid. What happens is you check the box that says "Yes, I will be applying for aid" and then they have you fill out all sorts of information about your family, such as salaries and how many people in your family must be supported etc. and then the college helps you out. And usually you can get a job on-campus at college (like working in the bookstore, library, cafeteria etc.) and the money you earn from that can go towards tuition. And if the aid they give you still isn't enough, you can apply for student loans, which you pay off later when you're out in the world and on your own with a real job

Paper will be the death of me. :( Ah well. I'm not going to worry about it too much now, I'll wait until next year. XD
