Where can i get a loan for school?

I am unable to get a loan from those “pay nothing till you graduate” lenders.

I’ve tried Astrive, Think student loans and the lending tree. i was declined every time each with a separate co-signer.

I just checked my credit report and I owe $1600 to a collection agency for a past credit card (3yrs go) and $1100 to a collection agency (1 yr ago) for an inhouse school loan. I still owe 3 other company’s about $100 a piece.

Are there any other lenders that might loan me money in my situation? Is there any other route i can take to get back to school for the spring semester? or am i at a standstill untill i can pay those other debts off?

Apply for the student grant. You do not have to pay it back. I already got the student grant of 4000 USD for this year.

step 1 : http://www.pin.ed.gov/

step 2: http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

GOOD LUCK.

The best type of loan to get is a federal loan because you don’t need good credit or a cosigner.

Here are the steps you need to take:

1) Fill out the FAFSA. This will determine if you are eligible for financial aid. Go here:

http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

2) Once you are eligible for aid, choose a government-based student loan. The best loan to get is a Federal Perkins Loan. These have low interest rates and the government will help you pay it back as long as you stay enrolled in school. You also don’t need a cosigner or good credit for it. For more info go here:

3) The next best loan to get is a Subsidized Stafford Loan. This has many of the same benefits as a Perkins Loan. Learn more here:

4) You can also try to get a grant or scholarship, which is free money that you won’t have to pay back. Look here:

Okay… you may not be able to get financial help to attend the same college for the spring semester. You’re credit report won’t look good to many if any loan companies. I’m being very honest with you. I attend college online and only pay 41.00 a month for books, tuition, etc. I do it all in my home and at my own pace and no homework either well except the actual schoolwork you get sent to you of course. You should check out the website though. It’s a great school. www.ashworthuniversity.com

There are many student loan lenders.Before you go for one check the rate of interest and also see that the lender is a legitimate one.

Don’t pay any money to get the laon. You can also try for some scholarship online.

Besides looking to loans and grants you should also sign up for those grocery rewards programs that give you education dollars when you shop.
