<p>could my parents pay the room and board but i pay for out of state tuition(ive lived in california forever but dont ask) by having a job??
also dont ask about fafsa and cal grants, i got nothing.</p>
<p>Illegal Immigrant (Don’t respond to that)? You’d have to get loans, out of state costs are going to be ~$30-31K.</p>
<p>Don’t you qualify for AB540?</p>
<p>I am in the same situation, but I will pay in-state tuition with the AB540 affidavit.</p>
<p>Also if you are illegal, you can’t get any federal loans or work legally.</p>
<p>You’d have to work full time @ at least 17-18$ an hour to be able to afford it (Im calculating after taxes).</p>
<p>Suppose you are not a senior that is already accepted into college, you can always make use of the scholarships which do not require for you to be a legal resident.</p>
