..No Other Option

Hello Heather!

I am so confused as to what to do at this point… I have tried absolutely everything I can to get some type of aid or government loan. Unfortunately my parents have no affiliation with any of the family. Their information I am not able to provide on the FAFSA. My school sent me a VERIFICATION OF APPLICATION FOR
FEDERAL UNSUBSIDIZED LOANS ONLY form but it has to have a parents signature which is not possible either. It looks like my only other option may be to take out a private loan until I turn 24. But I do not have anyone to cosign and I do not know if without it they will approve me. I am also worried about the interest rate and drowning in debt. I do not know what to do at this point. I feel lost, uneducated and like my future has come to a complete halt. Any suggestions?

talk to the financial aid office about loans you might qualify for that allow income-based repayment.

Maybe I am a bit late but still… I know that you are worry about % of loans but you need to worry more about education. When you will get a good job then you will finish with your debt.
