I've been accepted to attend FIU this coming semester. I qualified for full Bright Futures and worked hard throughout high school to maintain a high GPA.
I've run into an obstacle now though as I've been living here for 5 years but I'm still an illegal immigrant due to having an extremely complicated case that is continuously being processed and left up in the air.
I now find that without my residency I do not qualify for Bright Futures and to add I will need to pay triple the price since I'll be considered an international student, regardless of how long I've been living here.
I thought I was safe in attending FIU up until now so it's a bit of a panic being so close and suddenly being placed so far away from my dreams.

I was wondering if anyone had information on options I could possibly seek as to finding aid or the work programs or such in order to continue my education.

I send all my thanks. I really do appreciate any advisement.
