Hey Sea -- This may or may not be an option where you are, but it worked for one of our students. Check the employment benefits at your college; see if there's a tuition waiver. If so, scour their job listings for something you might qualify for without a degree. I don't mean the student jobs or work-study, I mean staff positions. Especially if there's something in your department, or someplace on campus where they already know you to be a bright, hardworking, lovable student.
This is how I funded my grad degree and how one of my former student workers managed after his merit scholarship dried up. His total TRB was close to yours. Now he has a job on campus; it's fairly low-paying, but it puts money in his pocket and he pays about $100/year in tuition to attend part-time. Sure, it'll take him an extra year or two to get the degree, but he doesn't care since it's hardly costing him anything and he's adding career-type work experience to his resume at the same time.
