so there is only a couple weeks left really 16 if im precise of my yr until i go sixform/college im really confused, my auntie really want me to go over to the usa and finish school there, which i want to because im tired of the life in London/Britain as a whole. i was wondering are there colleges there that do the same courses as uk? what will happen if i come back to uk after finished school? and are there any free colleges or are they all need payment? and how will i go about joining one in america?

Colleges are universities in america? So yer.
Also doesn't it make sense to at least do college over here then study further in America if you wish? You only see people move countries for universities really because our education would be different to theirs so all your subjects could be conjambled.

that needs research, if you move educational systems your likely to find that you wont be challenged as they generally work a year behind British standards.

Also make sure if you go to college your prepared to pay for it, international students looking at 8grand+ a semester.

going to america is a bit extreme for a fresh start lol?

This is what I want to do when I'm ready for university, I understand where you're coming from with a fresh start, America just seems perfect to me.
Anyway, I think you need to go online and look at the website for the college you want to attend, and it should have all the information, my mum keeps telling me that's what I need to do whenever I mention it, even though I'm only in year 10.
Good luck with it ;)

Does your Auntie live in the USA? If not, how are you going to afford a decent place to live?

if you are TRULY serious about this you might be able to do a year at college (as in 6th form college) through the ROTARY CLUB/ROTARY INTERNATIONAL.
