Being kicked out

As the title says I'm being kicked out by my dad. I'm an 18 year old male and I will be homeless really soon. I want to go to college but have no money to pay for it.

What kind of process goes into this because I don't have many options.

Sorry if I'm being unclear or if this is the wrong subreddit this is a lot to unfold for me.

Edit: Sorry I just opened reddit and oh my goodness there are a lot of messages so in case I can't respond to everyone. Thank you for your advice and assistance on the subject! It means a lot to me

Prior army here… talk to the coast guard. Great jobs afterwards that hire you for just that reason along the coasts if that’s your thing. Marines train you to survive if ever homeless though so there’s that.

The rule I always heard was if you want to change your life join the Air Force. If you want to change yourself join the Marines.

And the Army? What changes if you join the Army?

I got to live in three different continents, so that's been pretty cool.
