Does anybody know where to get student loans for a non acredited college? (it's a private christian college)

Question

help!!

Answer 1

Try private student loans, such as Astrive.com or Teri.com
They charge a higher interest rate, but you can get your money sent directly to you (not to the Financial Aid office) if you need it sooner (Astrive only). You can be the borrower, or have a co-borrower (co-signer) if you have credit problems. You can defer payment until after you graduate, or pay as you go, or pay just the interest. You can usually borrow up to 30,000. I don't know if your school would qualify for borrowing, but it's worth checking out. My 3 sons have borrowed from them to go to technical college and a university. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

If you are thinking of going to a nonaccredited college -- here is the best advice I can give you:

1. Put your hand ten inches in front of your face -- palm up.

2. Quckly smack yourself on the forehead.

3. Say the words "You Idiot -- You should go to a REAL college."

If you really want to go to a religious university -- there are plenty of good colleges that have a religious connection. the obvious ones are Notre Dame, Georgetown, Boston College, Villanova and Holy Cross. But if you object to Catholic universities (which you shouldn't because the religious studies classes are not necessarily taught from a Catholic point of view) then there are alwsy schools like SMU and Duke that have Methodist ties.

Go ahead -- smack your forehead, then apply to a real college.

Answer 3

Pick another college. Preferably secular.
