I start "College" in a week!

For school, get in and talk to anyone in student services that deal with finaid. If you qualify you'll get it no matter when you start as long as your starting at the begining of a semester.

This sounds like a huge jump and maybe you want to talk to someone about seeing if you can start next sememster? I jumped into school once without preparing myself, Huge mistake my parents are still paying for. Now, 7 years later, I am 2 semesters in to a planned education with a perfect 4.0 GPA. It's an Auto Tech program, there will be other openings. Just sleep on it.
