<p>i wanna atry to get inot college and get some fianncail aide but its real hard
parent is dead im only 17 mom left us when i was a kid
what do i do?????</p>
<p>Who are you living with?</p>
<p>Are you a ward of the state? In foster care? Do you have a legal guardian? Would you have independent status at graduation?</p>
<p>Once you answer those questions, we can tell how to proceed. However, I think the best thing for you would be to get a Pell grant and go to a community college to start. It sounds like you might qualify for a Pell.</p>
<p>What state are you in? Are you a citizen or green card resident?</p>
<p>OP, according to your profile, you are 31 years old. Is that an error?</p>
<p>On another post, the OP says both parents are dead. This guy is starting to smell.</p>
