But I am going to call the director of admissions at CLarkson again tomorrow and talk to him about this all some more. but in the mean time anybody have any scholarship ideas or grants?

There are some lenders out there that will give you loans without a cosigner, especially if you explain your situation to them. This happened to me this past semester when I quit a full time job that helped paid for school for mainly sanity reasons. My mother nor my father would cosign a loan to cover that since it was my decision to quit the job. I took it out on my own, granted the percentage is higher than it would have been if they had signed but it works. Education is the most important thing to me, having to pay an extra few hundred dollars in the long run is the sacrifice I decided to take.
Talk to the Financial Aid Department at the school. Most of the time, they will provide the resources to you in order to pay for school on your own. You will have to fill out the fafsa.
