Independent Contractor who works for Ohio DoDD, owes $3800

Hi, I'm a college student who is an independent contractor. In 2023, it took me until it was too late to find out that I was an independent contractor and that taxes are not taken out of my paycheck. So I ended up owing around $6000, I started a payment plan, it's down to around $3800. With my current payment plan it'll take around 25 more months to pay it off. I know I'm dumb, but is there anyway I could get it forgiven?
