<p>First, I suggest talking to Fin Aid. If your dad isn’t going to pay for anything, then he has no reason to claim you as a dependent anymore. Claim yourself and with little to no income, I’d be surprised if UVa wouldn’t give you Fin Aid. Talk to the ladies in that office and explain your situation and try to get some help.</p>
<p>On the flip side, if you don’t want to be at UVa anymore, as someone said earlier: the debt isn’t worth it to stick it to your dad. There’s some good schools in FL and it’s worth trying to take course there. I think it’s too late for transferring, but you could apply for Spring admission and be a part time student for summer/fall. Transferring isn’t all that hard/bad, I did it and I don’t see the stigma that you’re attached to one school for four years., it’s jsut that most people don’t want to apply to college twice.</p>
