Even minors can form a business entity if they can provide sufficient ID in many jurisdictions. Obviously most minors do not have a drivers license.
College dorms might pose a challenge because of the rules. Some colleges will not allow business activity from the dorms.
In general I have never seen a college that can prevent you from operating a legal business, but maybe not on their campus with their tools. Then again: I would approach the dean for support and then you may find you have a free shop in your school, free website and access to software licenses (course they may want a cut of your pie as well).
I think many in the FIRST community could rally the necessary resources to move barriers if asked. I would certainly provide free web hosting and they could bring their domain to it. I might even provide some resources like money and tools. Key is to ask.
