What is the best way to stay out of debt during college without taking out a student loan ?

I am a High School senior and am hoping to get a degree in Business Administration and then take 2 years of religious studies. I do not want to have debt for the rest of my life, and college is expensive, especially if I am doing it for 5 years. I have taken about a year of dual enrollment, so I do not have to pay for one year, but it still feels like a lot. I am applying for a lot of scholarships, but I don't want to assume I am going to get many... I also do not like the idea of taking out a loan. Is it possible to not need a loan? I do have a part time job, but to keep up with school and everything else, I only work 11 hours a week.
