<p>I am an incoming high school senior who is a non-citizen and not a permanent resident. My family and I have will probably get our work-permit in a couple of months, meaning that I might get my greencard before the end or during the summer of my senior year. As I understand, colleges do not provide significant aid to international citizens and I am ineligible for most loans/scholarships. If I can't get any outside aid, I will probably end up going to a state university although I have a decent shot of getting into the ivies. </p>
<p>Does anybody have any advice as to how I can manage the financial situation?</p>
