I am 25 years old with an apartment, van, a lot of bills, and a full time job. I want to start Massage Therapy school next month, which will be $13,000. I qualify for government loans, but they only cover half. I'm a single, straight white adult with no children...if I wasn't single, if I was gay, not white, or had a kid I would qualify for more. But I don't.
I don't have to start repaying my government loans until 6 months after I graduate. But I'm going to have to take out a personal loan to cover the rest of school. The problem: I totally can't afford any more monthly bills until I graduate & get a better job! People are telling me that a personal loan means I'll have to start repaying immediately.
The reason I'm going back to school to begin with is because I need to have a job that I can earn money to help out with bills. This is going to take another year, & i can't afford any more bills. Does anyone have any suggestions please?!
