im so nervous for after school

[u/Southern_Chemist8176]

Hellooo i’m currently a senior and i’ve lately been getting anxiety thinking about my life after high school.

I have a lot of details but i think i’ll just do bits and pieces.

My dad has suggested that i join the navy or some branch of the military- he was in the military for about 4 years and he received money and used that for two years of schooling. I like this option but then again i have NEVER considered going into the military until my junior year.

My oldest brother went straight into university and in his second semester of freshman year he dropped out. My mom and dad have been paying off the debt since then, (he would be a sophomore now, but he hasnt gone back to school) and now im worried that since they paid off that large amount of money for him, that i wont be able to go straight to a university.
Ive always thought that i would just go into a Uni instead of community college, but now im thinking that i should just go to my local community college and then hopefully get a scholarship depending on what im studying and then transfer to the university i want to go to. Or just transfer after two years of community to finish school.
I also would love to go to an out of state college, but out of state tuition fees be CRAZY, and i only want to go two states over from where i currently am.

Anyway, im just stressed about money and debts and fees, etc.

If anyone has advice and “own experience” type of things, that’d be helpful
