The best and first place to start is by completing the FAFSA form each year as soon as you have your income tax forms completed. All financial aid granted is on a first come first serve basis as stated on their website. Depending on the family income and savings along with yours, it will determine what kind of financial aid you will receive. You could also qualify for Florida's ABLE grant. Also, you should apply for as many scholarships as you qualify for consideration no matter the amount (including several free scholarship search engines). I am including some free resources in locating tuition money. Good luck!

Check out Federal Student Aid Web Site or FAFSA http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/
I suggest you explore all federal funding and grant options at the Federal Student Aid website http://federalstudentaid.ed.gov/
You may also want to read the Handbook of the Pell Grant -- this is an 86 page document that contains everything about the grant
http://ifap.ed.gov/sfahandbooks/attachments/0203Vo3MasterFile.pdf
Or you can call the Federal Student Aid Information Center http://www.ed.gov/programs/fpg/gtepfpg.pdf at 1-800-433-3243 and ask them if there are any programs for you
Aside from FAFSA http://www.fafsa.ed.gov and Pell Grant http://www.ed.gov/programs/fpg/index.html , you may want to explore private foundation grants
Also check out Fastweb http://www.fastweb.com
For private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online http://gtionline.fdncenter.org . It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) and their opening blurb says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." You may be able to find grants from private foundations.

I think your best option would be to contact the financial aid counselor at that college, they probably have the most/the best information. You could also try putting it into a search engine.

Talk to your high school guidance counselor. They are trained to find out these things for you. If you are past high school age contact the school in question. They will give you the help you need. Good luck!!
