Well looks like the apartment plan won't work out. I mean two years from now once i graduate college, have a car, and get a job, sure it'll work out well. But now with my gf and I not having our cars nor jobs and my friend wants to do this plan next month, it's getting unrealistic. My parent's financial situation is worse so but at least I'm still going to college and they have a PRIDE club like I said. I guess patience and more patience will get me to my goal. I'm not on here often, just come to post my thoughts and also get help with situations. But not all has been bad here, last time I went to the mall with my gf I bought inserts for my bras 
So worth it since I'm not on HRT yet and also bought another pair of panties.
Hi Skylar, I hope you graduated all right. You're in a very difficult position, as all of us who have non-supportive parents or partners.
Basically, I read all of your posts here and wanted to comment on a few.
a) You need to get a job. The sooner the better, it can be even a part-time one.
b) You can learn to program computer language and build web-sites / mobile apps without any college and degree and start earning money ASAP.
c) You can get hired by big organizations without any college degree as easy as if you have a degree. I work at a national bank, and we hired 2 guys who self-educated (and they were hired before in other places). Once you get your first job and do your work, no one will remember whether you had a degree or not...
So, degree is nice, but your young years now are precious. If you don't transition now, it would be much more to do later in life.And if you get into college, and your parents get a wind of your transitioning (they will see you quite often, you cannot hide hormones forever), they could possibly cut your financial support, and you might ruin your credit, etc.
My reasoning is, you must start building financially independent now. The sooner, the better. Not in 2 years after college. See if you can learn programming and building web-sites by yourself, if not - get into sales maybe? If nothing else, you always can join US Army and come out to army psychologist after you finish your basic training.... (btw, _very_ good option, there are many cis-girls serving our country in US Army, immediate independence from your parents, free education and other benefits later in life, nice savings build-up, free medical insurance and traansition paid by the government ...)
Or start part-time job, save some cash to move out asap to your own place and apply for medicaid (hopefully it covers HRT at least)
But there must be some sense of urgency for you, you're still growing, testosterone still makes your body more and more male. It would be more difficult to reverse it later (face hairs, for instance).
