At 19 you can't really say your a fully qualified electrician if you have zero working experience. You desperately need to get out there on the tools for a couple of years, rather than staying at college learning more that you can't put into practice. Ideally you would be doing both, working and studying, but in these times that's easier said than done.
Your priority at this time, i would say is to get out there and gain experience with a company, or at the very least with an experienced self employed electrician. Don't be tempted to go it alone working for yourself via one of the scheme providers, you'll learn nothing, and could get yourself into a whole heap of unforeseen trouble!! What i'm basically saying is, don't run before you can confidently walk (the path!!)...
