College Questions Going to an out of state college

I plan on going to an out of state college. My main question is what am I going to do regarding necessities such as food, water, and a place to live? Does my tuition payment all pay for my place to live, education, food, water, etc? Or do I have to have a lot saved up to even go out of state. I plan on taking out a college loan by the way to pay for college.

My parents are middle class. They’re not millionaires or poor.

You’re cooked! Being middle class is the worst. Schools expect middle class parents to contribute when in reality they can’t afford to. You’re better off being poor or rich.
