I want to go to college but I have no scholarships. Can you get scholarship from community college like if you go to CC for two years after high school and maintain a high GPA then can you get a scholarship from there on as a transfer student?

Your life isn't over. I'm not sure about Community College scholarships but you could always apply for student loans to pay for all of your college. That is what me and my fiancee did. She is a doctor and I'm an Paralegal. Good luck. Your life has only just begun.

I do not see the connection between "is my life over" and "I have no scholarships." If you don't go to college, you life is not over--c'mon!
Definitely go to CC--many universities would prefer transfer students anyway, and you can get the basics out of the way, and prove that you can do college-level work. It is also possible to take a gamble, borrow the money for college, and gamble that the extra money you earn from your degree will pay back your loan, and more.
Or, you can learn a skill that will help you become employable--life is more than just sitting around a classroom making fun of the teacher.

Oh don't be so dramatic, your life is not *over*, and the rest of your post proved that you *know* there is hope. Yes, you can get scholarships as a transfer student.
There are a surprising number of scholarships out there if you are willing to hunt for them - ask the guidance counselor at your school to help you look. Also, talk to the Financial Aid department of the college - they know of lots of loans and scholarships you can apply for, and plenty of people work during their college years to pay for their needs, and then pay back the loans once they get higher-paying jobs after college.
So don't tell yourself "I want to go, but this and that is in my way"... tell yourself "I AM going to college, and I'll do what it takes to make that happen."

Listen honey...going to college has nothing to do with scholarships...You get financial aid through the government, pays tuition, books and even sometimes money to live off of.
Go on and get yourself a part time job (also called a hustle) and WORK YOUR BUTT OFF until you get what you want (a degree)
While you're in community college, maintain your GPA and yes you can apply for scholarships with the college you plan to attend...talk to a financial aid counselor at the college you plan to attend. They love this ****.

First off, your community college will have any scholarship information you need. Most colleges take care of their financial aid and scholarships. Look at private colleges, some will have enough financial aide to make up the difference.

yes, almost any public university will give you a transfer scholarship if you have an asociates(two year) degree, also many private universities do the same. just check with financial aid at the 4 year university you wish to attend

You can apply for grants. Hunt around, there's always money! Ask my friend DW (mochajavalatte25) She'll be answering you soon...
