AstrosJake:

i could do maybe $15k a year, but it would still all be taken out in loans. in a couple years, my family will be able to pay something towards school. we just can’t right now.



That seems tailor-made to attending a cheap community college for a couple years, then transferring to a four year school such as UIUC to complete your bachelor’s degree, if none of the automatic full-ride schools in the list linked to in post #4 is suitable for you and no other school gives you enough financial aid and scholarships.

The full or near-full ride schools in post #4 that have civil engineering are Alabama - Huntsville (but you need a 34 ACT or 1490 SAT CR+M), Louisiana Tech, Prairie View A&M, and Howard.
