Help! I'm can't afford college. How do I get a loan?

Question

I had scholarships, but my GPA sucks this semester. My family can't afford to pay, and I've never applied for loans before. I don't think my parents credit is very good. Will I even qualify for a loan? How do I apply for one? How much can I borrow?

Answer 1

Did you try the FAFSA webiste?

Answer 2

Talk to the financial aid person at the college. There are loans and grants. If you're under 24 and your parents income is low enough, you'll qualify for grants. There's also work study programs on many campuses.

Answer 3

You could get a goverment grant, that is right a U.S.goverment grant, but half to pass all classes or you will half to pay it back, and the other question. It will depend on
how many credits you will need and how many classes you will need too. you may wan't talk to your counceler,or go to a collage and ask them your self you also might want to take you mother and father with you to help out with some questions. Some collages go by a credit dolar amount.

Answer 4

All of these questions are best answered by contacting the college's Financial Aid Office. There are lots of programs out there, some that no one applies for because they don't know about them, because.... no one contacts Financial Aid.

Answer 5

You should just join the military then. Get a cushy AF job fixing computers. Do your 4 years and the government will give you some money for college.

Answer 6

try talking to the financial adviser at your college, they usually have professionals on staff to walk you through the process.
