How do you pay for college when your parents make to much for financial aid and can't pay for it out of pocket #Fall25?

I am a high school senior and will be attending Mississippi State University in the fall of 2026. I will be double majoring in Landscape Architecture and Landscape Contracting and Management, and will receive a minor in Business upon completion also. The biggest concern for me and my family is large student debt upon completion. I am applying for scholarships but it still appears majority will be funded by loans.

What must life be after college for students who can’t pay ?

What will life after college will be like and how will it fully impact my life after. Will I take out loans or drop out why should students have to pay high prices that are not reasonable at many schools to gain a higher education to support yourself in the future. Why must we be stuck in a cycle of constant paying back when people are looking for jobs to pay off debt and being denied.

How much is too much to take out in student loans?

I am planning to attend Howard University in the fall. I’m super excited I got in, but now I am worried about paying for it all. My parents won’t be able to help me pay for college and even with the financial aid I have been given, it looks like I will owe more than 100,000 after 4 years. Should I just choose a cheaper lesser known school?

How important is it to choose a college based on financial circumstances?

I am trying to decide where to go to college. If I go where I want I'm going to be in debt, but if I go where I don't want to go I'll have barley any. Is it worth not being happy if I'm not going to be in debt, or be in debt and get a better education and have a better experience.

As an early high school graduate, how can I pay for my agriculture degree without going into debt ?

I will graduate right after turning 17, but I am worried that graduating at a young age, I will not have enough money to fund my degree. I have held a steady ranch hand job for 3 years, however, only make minimum wage. I plan to go to community college to finish my associate degree and perhaps eventually transfer to a larger school for my bachelors. Even with this plan I may not be able to afford it.
