From Pell or Tap- none they don't care.
From a bank you will need something showing some decent payment history if you had bad credit in the past. If you don't have anything reported that shows payment history in a good way ask if your utlity companies will post your payment history.
Most students have NO credit and they get approved your only obstacle would be pay now while you go loans which are funded by actual banks and poor credit history will be an issue.

As noted by others here, the first thing to do is to go to http://www.fafsa.ed.gov and fill out the application. The best loans to get are government subsized loans due to low interest rates and no interest deferrments. Your financial aid officer will be notified of the options for you and if you still need more money to help you pay for college and/or expenses, you'll need a private loan. I suggest http://www.thinkfinancial.com . They are one of many private lending companies but I have had great experiences with them in the past. It is easy to apply and you get the money very quickly. Good Luck.

none, go to FAFSA.org and fill out your fafsa, they will send your school a statement of how much financial aid you qualify for, the government backs the loans so credit is no problem. You will sign an agreement and the loans will be first sent to your school to cover your fees and tuition and your school will send you the left over....so no credit required

damn knock on wood, Roxie is right. But aside from that if you get a private loan, you are looked at more with a fine tooth comb and your ability to pay it back. If you have to go that way please do your research first as to who has the lowest rates.
