should I go to USF or listen to my parents and go to community college.

Texas resident here, too many of our public schools are not affordable unless you’re very high stat. Your stats are very solid. Have you looked into the following schools, they would give you good aid/merit and might be affordable. I think you still might be able to apply.

Angelo State University
Tarlington State University
Stephen F. Austin University
Sul Ross University
Texas A&M University - Commerce
University of Houston

Good luck to you.
