OP, to reduce your future college cost, can you enroll in a dual enrollment program in your senior year of high school? You could potentially complete as much as 30 credits during your final year of high school by going to your local Community College full time and have your tuition/fees/books covered by the state/college/school board. You could complete most, if not all, your nursing prerequisites by the time you finish high school, allowing you to apply to either an ADN or BSN program (check prerequisites for BSN programs).
