If you come to the U.S. on a student visa, you will not be able to work. After being in the U.S. as a full-time student for 9 months, you will be eligible to apply for practical training and work as an intern part-time during the school year and full-time during the summer. You can also work on-campus (wages range from $6 to $10/hour) for up to 20 hours/week during the school year, and full-time during the summer. You don't have to wait 9 months to work on-campus, but on-campus jobs are very limited, so don't rely on this to pay for your studies.

Having said this, one good option for you would be to attend community college for the first two years and bring your grades up. After this, you can transfer to a university or 4-year college and get your bachelor's degree. Another option is to look for universities that accept students with your GPA and SAT scores.

If you are interested in Washington state, contact the University of Washington international student admissions department and tell them about your situation. They should be able to point you in the right direction.

Princeton Review's web site has a tool that will help you narrow your search. It asks you questions about your background and about your interests -- then it spits out a list of schools that will be appropriate for you.
