How do you guys afford college with no family support? I may have to get rid of my meal plan but I’m in eating disorder recovery and have Emotionally Abusive parents/family.

This is all by design. Colleges raise tuition prices because they get the parents on the hook. Industries basically eye the amount of money families have and raise prices to take that money. Healthcare is even worse when adding dependents and spouses. It isn’t a competitive market but on oligarchy.

Obviously I know that. My parents are not helping because they don't care.
