Hmmm based on what I'm reading here (Good ol' Google) if you take a certain amount of the GSCEs and get at least Cs on them it will count on college entrance exams (there's also something called APs but I don't know what those are AND I don't know if you can take any of these after school as an adult).
HOWEVER apparently you can actually take a GED and/or go straight for the SAT or ACT (all from the UK, apparently) through the College Board and they'll let you in (provided you get a good enough score).
May not work for you, but there is an option to obtain a student visa. And I know that college here costs more than in the UK, but there are tons of international student scholarship (and scholarships meant for adults who want to go to college) that could help you out. Plus you could always go to a smaller community college or a public university to help keep your costs down.

Just some things to consider? :) *trying to help*
