Hi there Miller Time 247! I am glad that you have the desire to go to college. I think that with faith in God, and hard work, you will be able to make it. The first thing that you can try is to find a scholarship that you can avail. You can try politicians, government institutions or even scholarships funded by private businesses and individuals. Second, is to be a working student. You can work part-time on business establishments like fast foods, or anything depending upon your skills. You can also work for the college that you are going to if they offer programs for that. If these cannot be done, I would suggest that you find a job and save enough money for college.

Research whether your course is eligible for scholarship then find people or organizations that give scholarships, or look for schools that offer scholarship grants. Or, make a research if in your place there are "study now, pay later" types of loans. The most feasible is for you to look for a job that could support you, but allow you to have time to study. I sincerely hope that you would be able to go to college.
