Law School Loans: Financing COL

Hey all,
Wondering how to finance my COL expenses during law school. Would be super grateful if anyone could nudge me in the right direction. Some information that may be helpful: (1) I will likely be attending on a full-ride (by "likely," I'm referring to the probability of attending the school; the scholarship is guaranteed); (2) I have the option of moving back in with my parents, but I won't consider it until 2L (even then, I'd really prefer not to burden them; this is a worst-case scenario ); (3) I have issues I need to resolve with my taxes (going to talk with some CPAs Monday), so, if all else is equal across federal and private loans, I'd prefer to go with private.
The universe of information on the topic is muddled and untrustworthy. TLS has come through in the past, so here's to hoping y'all can come through one last time.
Take care y'all
