Does anyone know if there is a way to pay for college with out a student loan i.e. a good scholorship. For someone with not so good grade in highschool? Or if there's a way for me to prove my independence? For me to apply for fafsa I need my dad's tax returns. However my dad will not give them to me and even if he did I couldn't get fafsa because he makes too much. I've been living on my own since oct of 08. Some one help please.
