Jessica asked:


already receive stafford loans, but I know that some people take out tens of thousands of dollars worth of other loans for school. Im probably going to need around 20,000 beyond the stafford loans altogether. Also, my parents have no money and I think they have bad credit, so will that affect me?
What are some good loans out there?

I am a college sophomore attending a state school but even so I have already accumulated thousands in student loan debt. I worked 60+ hours a week last summer and that money won’t even last to cover half this year’s rent and utilities! I am trying to cut back spending but really all I buy are groceries and the occasional movie ticket. I don’t even have any transportation costs because the bus is free for students.

I have been unable to find part-time work that fits around my schedule because I need to take a lot of credits or I’m not going to graduate in time which would mean taking out even more loans. I applied for every scholarship I could get a hold of but didn’t get a penny, and my financial aid is absolutely pathetic because my family is in that awful limbo where their tax returns show too much income to get decent aid but too little to actually contribute anything. I am 19 years old, and I am scared out of my mind that I am digging a hole I’m never going to get out of.

HELP!!
