Hello, Garret !
I am so sorry that your Institutional College Sponsorship has reneged on their agreement with you. What was the reason that they did this ? It's October, do they want any scholarship money back ? What are the actual issues involving your situation ? Is it cancelled for next semester ? You would have already had this semesters' tuition paid to already be in your classes. Was your sponsorship cancelled or not granted ? These questions and more will need to be specified for you to receive helpful guidance. Your first step would be to read the letter of cancellation from the corporation, foundation, agency or organization that promised you the sponsorship as suggestions as to what to do may be included in that letter. It will depend on why they've cancelled you, so if you return here, you can be more specific about it.
I emphasize how important it is to be detailed because if you are an international student, there very well may be visa consequences, shortening your ability to stay in the U.S. or you may have to apply for a new visa, but you didn't mention if you are an international student. Please go to your campus academic counseling center and discuss this face to face with faculty. In order for you to know what to do, you must get the information straight from your college and make sure it is clear to you why your sponsorship was cancelled or not granted.
In any case, you can consider not continuing with courses for the uncovered portion of your tuition - which I assume is next semester since it's now October and you probably have your tuition paid by the sponsor for Fall '24. You're just going to have to do whatever you can do. If you present this concern to campus staff, provide all specific information and find out what your chances are to regain sponsorship from a different source once you have had a sponsorship taken away. You can consider going to school part time to lessen the expense. If you are a foreign student, speak with a Legal Aid attorney about this, too. Any number of things can help you, but I do not know your specific situation. Try anything that seems like it would help.
So before anyone can really direct you with advice, you will have to present this situation with more detail and present it to staff at your college. They are authorized to guide you specifically for your situation.

Firstly, trust in your own abilities! It's crucial to have the right support systems, but ultimately, it's your responsibility to strike a balance between your studies and other life interests. Always carve out time from your study schedule to indulge in activities that bring you joy. Whether it's hanging out with friends, creating art, or pursuing any other hobby, these activities can help maintain your mental wellbeing and ward off academic burnout. Don't hesitate to contact the career counseling or advising office at your university to explore the resources they offer. Lastly, participating in various clubs and groups on campus can broaden your social circle and may lead you to find a mentor or sponsor with whom you resonate.
