My situation is, I'm 16 and living in an abusive household. I want to leave as soon as I finish highschool. That will be in a little more than 2 years. Currently, I'm in the US, and if possible would like to leave the country for college. I've been told it's cheaper in Scotland so I'm thinking about going there. Any country that I can communicate in English or Spanish works though.
I have a 3.9 GPA trying to get up to a 4.0 and as well as taking a lot of AP classes so I might qualify for some scholarships.
Starting in June, I can work and most likely will be making the minimum wage.
I can live the next 2 years without needing a car or any huge expenses.
I need to go about this without my parents finding out because they will do anything to keep me with them. (Preventing me from working, taking my money, blocking off internet access, blocking off contact with other people, anything)
So knowing this, does moving to a new county so soon seem viable? How much money will I need? What country would be the best financially?
