Some dental schools will do braces for alot less than a private dentist. The advantage is that you still have a pro watching over the dental student as he does the work. See if you can find a dental school in your town to attend. If that isn't a possibility, try going to a state run dental program. They freqeuntly work on a sliding scale. You can work out a payment arrangement with most dentists or orthos. No reason to go with bad teeth, when you have viable options.

I'm sorry, braces do not come cheap. Take it from someone who knows, I used to have braces. And if you want braces before you go back to school (so that your teeth will be straight for the new school year) don't count on it. On average, you have to keep your braces on for 1 to 3 years. It doesn't happen in a month.
Good luck!

Braces are very expensive especially without insurance. They can cost $1,800 to $3,000. Wait for your mother to get a good dental plan or get a job to help out with expenses. Many orthodontists offer no interest payment plans.

Braces are expensive, but you usually don't have to pay it all at once. At my place you pay like $100 something dollars a month for like 2 years. (payment plans)

Sorry but no such thing.
However if you aren't able to get them relax. Many people get them as adults. They wear them (the clear ones) for a year or two and VIOLA perfect teeth!
