I am in the same situation as you. Here is what I did.
Fill out your FASFA form online (www.fafsa.ed.gov). Add all the schools that you intend to attend on your FASFA. Different schools have different deadlines to have your FASFA submitted. The earlier you submit your FASFA the better so that you can meet the deadline for all the schools. You must obey your school's deadline not the federal deadline for your state. The school receives money from the FED and they prepare a financial aid package for all the students that meet their deadline and that are accepted. The student package consist of scholarship, Stafford and Perkin loans. This all depends on your family's expected contribution toward your education. Whatever amount extra that you need you have to get a private student loan which is credit base. Your parents could also take a student loan on your behalf. For private student loans try Discover student loans and sallimae as. Your school should have a list of all the lenders that offers private student loans as well as a list of scholarships that you can apply for. Good Luck !!!!
If your expected family contribution is zero and you are interested in working in undeserved communities after you graduate for a free education. Check out the following link:

You should be able to get the stafford loan no matter what, You wont be eligible for some financial assistance from FAFSA, but as far as getting a student loan, you should automatically be approved for the stafford.
Talk to a school councelor to find out more options.. but dont give up!!! best of luck!!
