Basically, I need to pay for my housing (roughly 12000 USD for the upcoming academic year) & need a student loan, however I have no credit & no-one I know has good credit nor is willing to co-sign.

I would need this loan in 13 days. Am I royally screwed at this point? There is no on-campus housing so I had to resort to off-campus housing, and signed a lease on 30 July (however they told me they could cancel it if I don't have financial proof that I can pay for it). The thing is, if I cancel, is it even possible for me to find other housing and if so, what are the chances that I would qualify for even half of that amount, considering the aforementioned credit situation?

you're right royally fucked

At the moment, you're screwed but I hope someone can help.

1k a month on housing? That is not college living unless you live in downtown Chicago and goto UIUC where you are renting a nice 400sq ft studio 20 floors up the skyline.

Seriously..... I lived in a nice place... 3 bedroom and 900 total....

I live in a 3 bedroom and we pay a total of 575/month.

you can get federal student loans, without having credit. the stafford sunsidized and unsubidized are geared towards that.

if someone had filled out their FAFSA back in march/april, you wouldn't have been in this mess.

oh well, sallie mae and 19% interest rates for you, ha!

What do you mean 'go off the grid'?

you're a girl, right? prostitution.


you could always try to get your parents to cosign on a student loan from your bank.
