<p>Also note that your county-level/general scholarships will only be for a year, most likely, and you will need to have a plan to make up the remaining costs in following years. Depending on what your family is willing to pay and how much you are able to contribute, either by taking out student loans and working, it may be possible for you to go to UGA.</p>
<p>But if you are unwilling to work any kind of job, even on the weekends, or baby-sitting/tutoring, and you are unwilling to take out federal student loans, you need to consider going to a cheaper CC or look for schools where you have more merit money. (You’ve said you are ‘light’ on the ECs, so you can use that time to work!) Part of paying for college is /your/ responsibility, and there is no way you are going to find a 13k, four-year renewable scholarship that you are likely to win… you could try private scholarships, but those are harder to get than getting into Harvard.</p>
<p>At the end of the day, you need to take responsibility for paying for college-- if you’re not willing to work or take on loans, there won’t be a magic scholarship fairy that will hand you more money.</p>
