If your parents are turned down for the PLUS you will be additional $4000 inn Stafford loans.

However that still leaves you well short of what you need. You are talking about a ridiculous amount of loans for udergrad. I the unlikely event you ca even borrow that much you will be drowning in debt when you graduate and for 10-20 years after.

You need to be realistic and accept this does not appear financially doable for you. You can be released from ED if the financial aid is not enough for you to attend. Best to do it now so you can apply to some schools that you can afford to attend.
