Family = My tormentors

Alright I need to fucking get this off my chest.
My father and mother have been after me for so long about how I run my life but honestly, it's not their choice it's mine and it seems that they can't accept that. Man, where do I start!
After getting accepted to McGill university I realised that school will cost A LOT more than college did and despite the fact that I might have been able to save a couple thousand by working, I would be broke by the time I paid my tuition, books, rent, food, drugs, etc. I was stressed to the max and I know exactly what my options are but because of the lack of the social life that I had from my last two summers, I decided to take this summer off. I want to be able to go out which I haven't been able to do in the last three years of college much. I'm not someone who spoils myself much so I seriously need this.
I had insured my financial situation by applying to loans and bursuries and am getting over 700$ a month once school starts. I get more on months where I have to pay tuition and books. I'm able to survive on it perfectly and have more than enough money in the bank to last me the summer.
Unfortunately my parents have not taken too well to this. They have been down my back bitching at me because I am not working at the moment and because of my decision to continue school. They helped me throughout school by paying my rent when I went to Vanier and claim that "because they had been supporting me financially and thought that I would be working by now that I have not been fair to them because it's was our agreement." They also claim that applying for loans and bursuries is a bad idea because I'll be in "debt." NO DUH! Most students finish school in debt after university!!
They will not leave me alone until I get a job and I took the summer off because for once I wanted a real vacation! For the last two summers I was working overtime and living at my parents which proved to be a bad experience for me because of their attitude towards my life. They can't accept my decisions and it's driving me insane! They have been treating me like this for my whole life fuck. I have even tried losing all contact with them.
What do I do?!!
