I am a New York high school senior. My grades are just above passing and I want to go to Florida for college. I want to go to a community college/city college that has dorm. I have no money except for 1. Financial Aid 2. Scholarships I *Might* Get & 3. Student loans I will ask for. Anyone experienced that could help me pull this off?

Answer 1 :
You need to start by finding the college. Do some on line research and get a line on what schools might have what you want. Then, contact the schools and start applying. Meanwhile, you will need some cash just to move, and get set up. A part time job now, summer job (in FL?) later. Community colleges are more often attended by local students, but many do have dorms. There will be "campus life" info on their website. You might also find a roommate, and be able to split expenses. It is quite common for students to take smaller class loads while they work and study. Your ambitions are laudable, but remember- a good education is not handed to you on a silver platter. Up through high school, its free. And as you have not excelled so far, it may be quite a challenge to manage school work as well as "life in the real world." Time to roll up your sleeves and do the work. Best of Luck.
