Due to medical reasons I didn't get to attend College, which i still find a miss to this day (Hence me stating one regrets more what they don't do).

My country changed the Law of Financing education a short while back, but when I was the age the rules where that you'd get a certain government funding. Depending if you lived at Home, Out of home (Dorms or on your Own) and if or if not your parents were capable to help, you would be given a certain amount of money. You would only need to take out a loan for any aditional costs. And there have been enough students who managed it on Funding and a part-time job.
Student Loans weren't that steep, mostly because education here isn't even half as expensive as in America. Plus if you got your propaedeutics, and were allowed to continue in your chosen education in most cases that part of the Loans were absolved once you got your Diploma.
Nowadays you have to take out a loan for the whole amount as the Student fundings have been removed. So people now will have a bigger debt.
Put all of that under a spoiler.
Basically, it will be a bit tough. You'll have to learn how to balance a budget and how to keep yourself to it. You will Learn this.
Find a side job near your school that is both fun, educational, and worthwhile. This can be anything from waiting tables to something in the arts like writing or drawing for commissions.
Look for something that suits both what you want to become and who you are now. :}
