<p>Your ACT score of 30 is very good, so your homeschooling didn’t set you back (much) academically. Let the rest be water over the dam. You can’t change it now, so don’t ruin the rest of your life by dwelling on regrets. Instead, look toward your future… it sure beats wasting your whole life over a few years of your past.</p>
<p>Is there a guidance/adviser area at your cc? There should be. I’d probably start there asking questions and letting them know what you want to do. If they have a plan that seems good to you, go for it. If you feel you aren’t getting quite the path you want, start going to college search areas and put your major in to see what schools come up. Look at their requirements and get in touch with their admissions offices and/or departments. Your uncle sounds like he’s offering wise advice too.</p>
<p>One other area you can check out is a future employer. Can you find a company who is doing what you want to do and ask them for recommendations for colleges? Then research the colleges, etc.</p>
<p>Will your mom give you a diploma and make you a transcript? (Homeschooled versions are fine at practically all colleges.) If not, share this info with admissions and see what you can do about it. As a last resort, you could consider a GED, but very few schools require that.</p>
<p>The good news is you can do what you want to do. 
We’ll just work on getting you there.</p>
