I paid for college from a few different sources. I tutored, privately and in the learning center. I taught some classes. I had research assistanceships, and a few scholarships because of my grades. I worked a couple small programming jobs. I still needed some help from my parents, but how much was cut down to a fraction of what it would have been. That's not my point, though. My point is that I learned far more from those methods of raising money than I would have if I simply had the money. There are ways to turn this obstacle into an advantage. Good luck.
