I'm going to be starting college this coming fall, and I'm starting to worry about how I'm going to pay for college. My parents make a decent income, but they've already told me they won't be able to contribute much towards my tuition. I've been looking into scholarships and financial aid, but the more I research, the more stressed I feel.

I totally get how you feel. I come from a low-income family and had to navigate the financial aid system on my own. My advice would be to talk to your school counselor and see if they have any resources or advice for finding scholarships or grants. Also, don't be afraid to consider community college or trade schools as an option
