Colleges/universities’ total cost of attendance is often much higher than 12-15k. Are you saying “if I get into a community college” or “if I get into a university”? 12k is often the sole cost of books, room, and board. Tuition comes in addition to that.
What State do you live in?
Are there State Grants in your state if you transfer from your local CC to a 4-year public university?
What stats do you have - would you qualify for merit aid somewhere?
