Alternative ways to pay for college?


My parents are intent on making me enlist in the Air Force upon my graduation in June. In a way, I dont mind it. I'l get to serve my country, and get paid. They also pay for your schoolign while youre in, and most of it when youre out. I'll have a place to stay, and a car too. Not so bad...right?

But i've always dreamed of going to collge. Right before my mom told me shes making me enlist, I completed a list of 10 schpols that I wanted to attend. I talk to my friends and everyone is talking about college and how great its going to be. Or how great it already is for them. And its like..I want to have a life for once. Ive grown up a military brat. While its nice and secure, theres no real sense of fun and/or freedom. And thats just with me being a kid. As an adult i'll be much more limited in the things I can do in fear of being kicked out. I was really look forwad to some freedom to be myself, and in the military theres no way I can do that.

I only plan on staying in for 4 years, then getting out and going to be my bachelors and masters. I'll be 22 or 23 by then. Which is good I supposed. The military looks great on record. But im still not sure if its what I want to do. I know its more so what my parents want me to do, supposedly because of the recession going on.

My main problem with college is the fact that I cant pay for it. Its a bit harder for military brats to get scholarships since for some reason people think we're rich. My parents arent going to help, and im working on gettinga job now. But even then, it still wont be enough. I definitely dont want to take out any loans. Im not sure how much financial aid would cover me because my parents make more than enough to send me to the schools I want to go to. I could work while I school, but I dont think id be making enough to really pay for it on time and everything. Then there's ROTC, who offer scholarships for school for sophomores and up in college. But its not guranteed...and I have no past experience in ROTC. So thats not such a good idea for me.

The deadlines for 3 of the schools are coming up [they're in CA] on the 20th. Ive already taken my SAT [1530] and ACT [scores still unknown]. Its still possible for me to apply to them all on time if I work hard for the next 2 weeks.

Now that youve read that...here are my actual questions.
-Do you think I should apply to the schools?
-What other ways would you suggest I pay for college, if I do apply and get accepted?

If you have any other advice or information, feel free to share it.

I think you should not enlist in the military. It's clear that your heart isn't in it. Go ahead and apply to colleges. If you change your mind later, you can always enlist then.

Paying for college will be tough if your parents earn too much for you to get need-based financial aid. Have you considered going to a community college for the first 2 years? If you are willing to lead a simple, no-frills lifestyle and work part-time, you might be able to pay community college tutition and support yourself without having to take out any loans. And if you do well academically, many 4-year colleges have academic scholarships for community college graduates.
