My parents do not value education.

My parents do not value relationships, partners, friends etc.

My parents are completely delusional when it comes to the cost of education.

I was accepted to my dream school several years ago and was denied entry by my parents, who then forced me to attend the university my mom was alumni at, and then proceeded to kick me out of the house mid 2nd semester. I was forced to take a gap year and then try and restart at a different university using money left to me by my grandparents to pay for my education and housing expenses (they could only afford 1 year at a very cheap state school).

The last 2 semesters were OK minus the chronic anxiety, but I just dropped my last class I was taking over the summer so I can pick up more hours at work because my parents are refusing to help me move into a new place with friends. The new place will be almost half the cost of my current place and closer to campus (significantly cheaper than living on campus).

I am pre-med and having 3 withdraws in the same semester while your GPA is barely over a 3.1 is not good. I'm fucked. My parents have explicitly stated several times that they are not happy with my desire to attend university and want me to continue working in the trades instead. I need to come up with approx. $2500 in the next 15 days otherwise I will be fucking over my education and 2 of my close friends will have nowhere to live. I will have to move back in with my parents, or I will go homeless.

No, due to my virtually non-existent credit, I dont qualify for any personal loans, neither do my friends.

>My parents do not value education
No, your parents do not value credentials, which is based and redpilled.
>cost of education
is free if your town has a public library, if not then it's no more expensive than an internet connection
>university my mom was alumni at
Here's two bits of education that I'm going to give you for free
1) "alumni" is plural. Your mom is a singular person, so you need to use the singular form of the word which is "alumnus".
2) lrn2grammar, tard-kun
>university at which my mom was an alumnus
you're welcome.

> let me be an engineer or a doctor with no credentials

yes, you pay for the credentials, not the "education". I know individuals who self taught themself enough engineering knowledge and math to be in "formal" engineering roles, but because they dont have a degree they make substantially less than engineers who have a basic 4 year degree.

> alumnus
idgaf about latin.

From this point on you have to expect no help from them at all. Expecting it is why your in this position.

Yes they should have. They didn't. You have to move on.

Sorry your life is about to crash.

I won't read quick cash threads posted by someone who is absolutely a scammer/panhandler.

So what advice do you even want? You have zero chance getting into medical school with so many withdrawals and your GPA is below the mean for "decent" Caribbean schools.

Do you have any actual medical experience? Mixing in chronic anxiety when you haven't even started meaningful patient care that you are responsible for might be a sign that you need to rethink things. That anxiety gets 10x worse when you are on the hook for other people's health and well-being.

Right now it sounds like you are simply sinking money into a void.
