Answer 1

You can apply for student loans. You are not eligible for low income housing as a student.

Answer 2

We are in the same boat. I am a single mum of 2 and am full time in college (16 credit hours thank you). I am fortunate that I don't have to work and do get child support from my kids sperm donors (sarcastic). I take a class called Academic Skills and it helps those that have been out of school for a while, or those that just need some "academic skills". Talk with your advisor (if they offer one being your courses are online). If I were you, and if it's financially feasible, lower your work hours and take advantage of student loans to pay your living expenses (that's what they are there for, just remember, your going to college to get that education that will get you a higher paying job than what you would have if you didn't go to college). Don't worry about overworking yourself, you'll never pass your classes if your bogged down with work. Contact your local office of Family Support for child care assistance (if you haven't already). Take advantage of any program you may qualify for and get a hold of child support enforcement if you want the father to pay and he's being a pain in the bum. Write down an itinerary and make as if you are actually on campus and stick to it as well as you can. Take advantage of the time your daughter is in daycare to study do homework or research. My science professor had us make an itenerary on the second day of class to see where we where spending our time and where we could of improved. I make sure I am in bed by 10:00pm so I can be well rested for 6:00am. I keep my kids on a schedule, and it's working out very well. I wish you and your daughter all the best...
