Denied PLUS loan, other options?
Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2012 11:20 am
repost only because i realize this may be better asked of current students:
I'm coming up about $15,000 short per year paying for school after stafford & scholarship are considered. waiting to hear back from one more scholarship that would solve my problem, but assuming I don't get that, does anyone have any experience or advice with private or other loans to cover such a balance?
I do (obviously) have a negative credit history, and my only cosigner was also denied. I am disputing things on my credit report and hope to be approved for the PLUS loan after making a payment on delinquent accounts, but if people have had related experiences I'd be glad to hear them.
