IF there's a will, there's a way...get on a bus (very low fare) into the nearest LARGE city and apply for every job you can find...dishwasher, waiter, etc. work full time this summer and you will have enough money to go to a community college. Do VERY WELL there and you will be able to transfer into almost any university or college...did you try to ask your parents again if they will loan you the money for community college, or contribute partially? Are there ANY relatives or close friends, friends parents that will help you find a job, navigate this process, etc. If not, you can do it. Perhaps if the situation is really dire, you should call social services, they will remove you from the home and guide you along the process of independence or ward of the state. If it is not dire, then perhaps some conversation with your parents about your feeling, goals and their willingness to help in any manner. Regardless, many have successfully navigated this path, worked full time, paid for community college and went on to be productive members of a university setting after. You can do it. Go for it.
