I need help? Would you wait 1-2 years so you can attend a university?

you better make sure 100% that youre classified as a dependent when you turn 23 because ive never heard of that. call the financial aid department of the school you want to go to and ask them that exact question because if that's not the case, you will be royally screwed and have to wait until the next year to apply for financial aid, and then you will have missed two years. and the deadline for financial aid is probably in about 6 months so you better do it now. and you said "oh if i wait until im 23 i can PROBABLY get financial aid". i get financial aid, and it only covers about half of what i need. i go to osu and its like 4 grand a quarter. so that means every 3 months im paying 2 thousand dollars so think about that. college aint cheap my friend but you can get private loans as well. and just remember, one day youre gonna have to pay that money back its not just free money, it accumulates interest too so youre paying back more. if the school costs 10 grand a year (which is pretty cheap) in two years you will owe 20 thousand dollars.
