So my parents are threatening withholding my tuition money every-time I do something they dislike, even the slightest things…is there anything I can do? I need to get out of this and I feel like I am being financially abused.

If you don’t already receive FASFA that’s an option. Personal loans though your bank or applying for a lot of scholarships

^^Scholarships Universe, local to your area scholarships, scholarships through your school. Could search for emergency funding options through your school (some schools don’t offer this)

Do what’s in your best interest. If you can set boundaries or clear guidelines with them and get through school, then do that. If you can’t, find a way to pay out of pocket- definitely utilize things like FASFA. Talk to financial aide, look into dropping back part time and getting a full time job. Any change is scary, but think about what will be better for you long term. Now is the time to be selfish.
