First of all, going dual-enrolled was a great decision and you are already ahead of the game....you are sensible not to get a degree in aviation and pay over $100k for flight training at a big name aviation university with sparkly planes and subsequently spend the rest of your life trying to rationalize why you spent so much to everyone (and that's another thread). Go to a real college/university and finish up your last years of college having normal fun.
If you are able to take a small student loan out to get your private and instrument (or if you can manage without) and then just have fun building hours, share time with people...maybe join a flying club or get your CFI and get paid to shape new pilots into who they are. There will always be airlines out there.. you can always join the rat race later.
