Ok, I am going to be going to college at SUNY Buffalo. I will be in the Pharm. D program which is a 6 year program that makes you a professional pharmacist. For the first 3 years I will be an undergraduate. My parents don't want to cosign but I think I can persuade them by telling them that they will only have to cosign for the first 3 years. After I become a graduate I will be eligible for my own loans for the remaining 3 years. I will also get a health professions loan from the school I go to next year so it will cut down the amount they have to cosign for. Will this work?

Sounds like a plan. But if they refuse, remember you can take out loans in your own name as an undergrad without a cosigner. Attaching publication on different types of loans.

Yes, it is a good idea, but it might be a tough sale with you having to pay for out of school college tuition rates. However, I do recommend trying for some scholarships to lessen the amount in student loans you take out for your schooling. The campus work study could help out a lot with the day to day expenses. You might want to add it is a growing field with more pharmacists are needed as the population ages. I will include some helpful links in finding some scholarships. Good luck!
