Hmmm...
Obviously, A natal Sun in the 8th house is full of crisis. With this specific placement, you surely have to be brave.Tho, don't misunderstand me, crisis are good to grow up... You can't realize it right now but you will one day, I guess. Transiting Saturn made damages, crossing your Scorpio planets... in the 8th house. Saturn is the planet of losses, obstacles, delays and allthe ******** that you can imagine, but he's a great teacher if you accept it. To have pain and understanding the big picture... ( As you see, I'm not native English speaker either...). Anyway, with these planets in the 8th house, and in Scorpio, you should really get more interested in Occult and Esoteric stuff, like Astrology btw.
Well, Saturn won't hang around by there until decades. Now, he's retrograding in the last degrees of Scorpio but he will go on his journey in Sagittarius where he's far harmless to you.
Jupiter, planet of "Luck" could help you soon. Transiting in Virgo in a few months, it will make good aspects to your Scorpio planets and specifically to your Uranus-Neptune conjunction. You should have some support, no matter transiting Uranus squaring Mars and stressing your activities, or your relationship with your loved one ( Mars in the 5th house suggest.that...).
Anyway, studies should be favoured. Using symbolic directions, your progressed Sun ( + 23°, when you'll have 23yo) is conjunct to your natal Mercury. It's a good sign about studies. Plus Progressed Saturn ( + 23° = 4° Pisces) will send a nice trine to your Sun. It's a REALLY constructive aspect. Perseverance and will should pay !
So, I officially encourage you to be optimistic.
PS: You should add the Pars Fortunae and Lilith to your chart...!
