[inconnu!*]

Okay, I have a problem. My parents are very old fashion. They think that girls should
not attend college far away from home. They want me to attend a college that is about
30 minutes near my home. Talking of expenses, it is alot cheaper.

But I dont want that. I want to avoid my parents. I cant deal living with them for another
4 yrs. And if I do, I can already imagine some type of war will occur during that time frame
because me and my dad do not get along. I want to avoid that at all cost.

Anyways, back to the point. Is it possible to attend college without parents support? Like
are there any scholarship or financial aid help that would be willing to support a student that
has no financial help from his/her parents?

The schools should offer financial aid but I just don't know if you would get approved or not and there are always school loans, though it'll be hard as heck to pay off later. Or there are other options as staying with your parents for college for two years and work to earn some money to later move out and transfer. Good luck.

You can borrow money from the state and pay them off after you graduate

Try signing up for fasfa or get loans, & scholarships
I'm a senior this year, and i'm really depending on fasfa and scholarships for when i go to college=P

you can claim independence, and you will get a lot of finaid from the school because when you report your income to fafsa, it'll be your own cashflow, and not your parent's.

however, this means that during the school year you MUST have a job where you work a certain number of hours a week. although it is dependent on the major, most students cannot handle this.
