Education & Reference - 22 October 2007

im a 2nd year under grad, and I have come to a point where I need to get a student loan. I'm looking to get a loan to cover living expenses, not tuition. Im 18, and dont have credit. I have applied for private student loans with Bank of America, and Sallie Mae. Both have turned me down, saying that I would qualify with a cosigner only. I dont really want to ask anyone to co sign, however I do have a trust fund, which is for an amount greater than I am requesting the loan for. Because of the trust's requirements, I can not have that money until I am 21, so it can not help me right now. Is there anyway I can use that as collateral to get a student loan without a cosigner?
(I have also applied for federal loans, Im just waiting to hear back from the finaid office about how much would be available.)

We recently read Into The WIld, by Jon Krakhauer (sp), in my AP English class. We are now required to do a visual aide project (i.e.- powerpoint, collages, paintings, sculptures, videos, etc.) to illustrate one of the five goals of the novel. They are:
1. The allure of high risk activites on men of a certain age.
2. The charged relationship between father and son.
3. The montastic tendencies of McCandless's trip.
4. Krackhaur's inner exploration of himself.
5. The grip nature has on the American imagination.

Does anyone have any good ideas I could use? I can't paint, and I can sculpt only moderately well. Any help will be much appreciated!

I just took the quiz on their official website and got that:

Your score was 22 out of 30. That is a very good score—you would have a good chance of passing the Mensa test.

Does that means I could actually be part of the Mensa? Do you think I should go take a test over there or is it a waste of money? I don't beleive I am part of the top 2% of the world.

Is the real test like the one on their website?
