Then try to apply for a school that has a cooperative relationship with the original school, so the tuition will be relatively low.
Taking a part-time job during school can earn back tuition and accommodation fees, and also improve oral English without delaying study. Don't live in a school apartment, let the school act as an intermediary to help you apply for off-campus accommodation (there will be a discount), and then share it with others, the house will save a lot.
In terms of scholarships, you should have a good relationship with professors, because there are many subjective factors in their judgment on you, such as expressing some academic personal views and forming the best discussion environment. The key is to look at the individual's attitude towards learning, followed by attendance. The results of the thesis will be affected by the first two factors, and the chances of getting a scholarship will be higher.
Also, note that people under 18 do not meet the legal working age. You can choose some shops in China or Thailand to work.
I hope it helps.
