Hello Desiree: I've researched your question and here are a few things you could do to pay for college and apply to scholarships. Hope this helps.
1) Take out a loan
2) Work-study program. Or, get a job in general. Most employers have a tuition reimbursement program. Some programs may include reimbursement for "part-time employees" so be sure to ask
3) Ask the college for more financial aid
4) Grants
5) Apply for private scholarships
6) Live at home or attend a Community College
7) Check your state's website for scholarships
8) Check with your Guidance Counselor for scholarship opportunities

In addition to the guidance provided, I share that when I was searching for scholarships, my local library was a great source. The library had many great books, thick books, filled with scholarship details. Some of the reference books were even broken down into sections that showed scholarships based on desired type of study, for instance.
Hope you find this guidance helpful and best of luck to you!
