ORIGINAL POST I'm currently 17 years old. On July 13th I am going to turn 18, I will be kicked out of my house on the day I turn 18. I have 2 jobs, one that pays $11.50/hour (Usually about 4 hour shifts on average) and the other pays $10.00/hour (Usually about 6 hour shifts on average). I need a plan for what to do once the day comes. I have school from 7:25 to 2:15 every weekday until June 3rd. The only way I can even think of changing my parent's mind about letting me go to college next fall is to raise $1300 to pay for 2 courses at my local community college. Please help, any advice is welcome
EDIT: I Have autism so going into the military isn't an option, I'm not physically capable to do much manual labor. The jobs I work are in a retail clothing store ($10.00) and a retirement home as waitstaff ($11.50/hour). The reason I don't have any savings is that I've had expenses like a car in the past. However, in the past month, I have totaled my car, got a replacement and have had to put the replacement in the shop because there is something wrong with the transmission causing it to not be able to shift out of first gear. I don't qualify for many grants because the combined income of both of my parents is about $250,000/year (Dad: $10,000 and Mom: $240,000)
