I agree with searching for as many scholarships as you can. But I would also work on your father... Tell him this.
1. If he gives you information about his wife, it doesn't obligate her to pay for your school.
2. Remind him the information isn't "given or shared" with any other person, agency, or entity.
3. Since they are hindering your desire to get ANY federal assistance (grants and loans), you will need MORE of their help finanically.
Find out why he is unwilling. Sometimes it's just because they haven't filed taxes (maybe for years) and don't realize that's okay and they won't get in trouble. If mom is wanted somewhere, or owes money to someone, that isn't going to matter. FAFSA just plugs numbers into a formula. Some people just need a little time to warm up to the idea.
If you are still in high school, get outstanding grades and your state universities may offer you a full ride.
Talk to your guidance counselor, or an admissions counselor at the school you are interested in.
There are many different scholarships available you could try to get, they offer specialty scholarships to a lot of people from vegans to skateboarders.
depending on your age...you may be abe to talk to your fin aid office and ask if they can allow you to file as an independant student. I have heard of a few people that were able to do it. some schools will some wont. but it's so important to get that fafsa in..and shame on your dad for choosing his wife over your future.
Good Luck. : )
