They are called scholarships. I went to a well respected engineering school and it only cost about 1500 per year. I just graduated this week with two degrees (mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering). Now I'm going to get paid to get my Masters degree. During the past four years I had at least two jobs ( at one point I had three) while doing 15-19 hours of class. I have no student loans. Moral of the story: if you want something, you have to work for it. Also, engineering is a tough major. I teach math classes as one of my jobs and I get students every semester who are pre-engineering that I know will never make it. Im not saying you won't, but college is nothing like high school and teachers will fail you for fun.
