College money help????

Question

I need a way that I can get some quick cash some how with no commitments. My first bill is like $1000 something and it's due by Aug 1st, well my parents keep telling me not to take out loans and all this stuff. Well what on earth am i supposed to do. I already applied for financial aid and i got a couple things i still gotta do. Please help i'm desperate.

Answer 1

maybe borrow the money from them, show them your signed up for school and any money you get back from financial aid goes straight to them.

get a student loan, job, thats about all i can think of. unless you have a job get a payday advance

Answer 2

Summer job?

Scholarships?

Win the lotto?

Answer 3

get a job that pays a lot or ask your parents for money

Answer 4

1)Get a job.

2) Search for unusual scholarships or grants. There are tons out there that grant money for practically anything like if you're left handed, exceptionally tall, if you know how to whisper to horses or call ducks etc. just think of any unique trait you have or any special skill that you can do (no matter how impractical or weird) and you may find an unusual scholarship that can grant you college money.

As much as possible, do not take out any loans (especially quick cash loans) because, chances are, you will find yourself in the same predicament as you are now when you have to repay your loan.

Answer 5

why don't they want you applying for loans? it's the most reasonable thing to do actually. i mean, the interest rates are kinda high right now, but in the long run, that just means it will take you longer to pay the loans off. and if going to college means you're going to have a more successful career, (and by default, prolly more money) then the trade off isn't bad!

sit your parents down and talk to them. tell them you'll be the primary loan holder if they'll just cosign with you. they may be worried about taking out more loans themselves FOR you, you know?

i just finished this whole 'find student loans' process myself. i used campusdoor student loans, and easily got the money i need. the loan is under MY name, with my dad as the cosigner. all payments are deferred until a full year after you graduate college too.

Answer 6

have them apply for loans?

get a job?
