Lucky you, there are a lot of scholarships given to first generation college students. Check www.fastweb.com for info on the scholarships. It also helps if you are a minority.
Keep dreaming, Reach for your goals. Go to college if you really want to. And choose a major/field because you love it, not because your family want you to be lawyer or the first doctor in the family.
And it's good to see that you are eager to go because you want something more for yourself, not because you feel obligated to do so. And good work on the grades.
Ask help from your school's college counselor. They have a database of scholarships and they can help you with choosing a school and career. They evaluate these stuff using tests like Myers-Briggs, so don't worry that they'll force a major or college or something on you. Get all the help you can get.
Good luck.
