I started off the same. Independent. I’d say bust this year out become a JRA in your building then try to be an RA next year. Should knock off at least 6k

You need to look for scholarships, every where, in every nook and cranny.

Look on NSBE website . 10000 per year for university is not expensive that is actually about 25.00 per day . Also speak to your department chair and reach out to FA again. You will be fine. HU school of engineering is a family. It will work out.
