It is a bit late now, but many less compeitive colleges would give you merit money, you do have good grades and ACT. NYC has CUNY which is only about 6000/yr and has scholarships that can make it free.
Problem is cost of living in NYC. 6000 is tuition only. Housing is crazy there.
You have to get your parents to go in and meet with a finaid staff person to give them a dose of reality.
They are giving you no viable options to start college now.
Only option is get a job, a cheap apartment and commute part time.
