If you do choose a medic program at a CC. Just reapply for fafsa using that schools fafsa number when you enroll in medic school. Remember you have to reapply for fafsa yearly. I had to apply for fafsa fall sem. To be covered through winter,spring, summer. Then again in spring to cover fall semester of the following year
 
Bakersfield college dose it also

We have one guy in class right now who's commuting from Laguna beach, and several from LA. They drive up on a monday and stay at a hotel with some of the other guys from class during the week.
If you're too attached to staying local, you may continue to have the same problem finding a program.
You've also got Saddleback in Mission viejo and Palomar further south.

For UCLA it's about $17900 if you do the part time/hybrid program. About $12k if you do the "traditional" program as they call it.

Check out percom the online paramedic program its about $5k. Its approved and you can sit for your nremtp
 
here's the breakdown for Sac State's Paramedic Program as of 2014/2015. Keep in mind that the course total (11,700) DOES NOT include what the agency will charge you for interning with their company; IE: Sac City FD charges an additional ~$2500 to intern with them. A smaller company may only charge ~$1000. This program also gives you 30 transferable college credits.

Agencies actually charge students to do internship for them? That's a joke

Mine was $1500

This is the first time I am hearing about this. The only time agencies charge students around here is if you get placed with the fire departments, they will normally charge $5 per day for food and that's it.
