    Well, as a community college student living with his parents, I get government financial aid that has so far been able to cover tuition. So, I am lucky so far. Worst I’ve had happen is not getting financial aid last fall quarter because I didn’t update an address on the financial aid disbursement platform the college uses (and not having it set to just go straight into my bank account instead of coming by snail mail).

      You are especially lucky that you choose to and got admitted to a college that you could get to but still live with your parents. Which is mostly only something people fortunate enough to live in a town or city with colleges or universities can do.

      Small town in Montana? You’re fucked.
