How do I pay for Northern Illinois University?

Question

I have bad credit and so does my Mom. I cant get a loan. I already finished up community college work with a 3.0 Gpa and need to get my Bachelors. How do I find more money. I have 10,000 dollar qualified of grants and federal loan. I need more money. Please help! This means so much to me being accepted and having the opportunity to be the first one in my family to go to NIU.

Answer 1

I would talk to the finanacial aid office at NIU. They should have some ideas to help you out. Hopefully you have been working on scholarships that are out there. If not try the FastWeb site at www.fastweb.com.

Good Luck! I hope you can work out the education you desire!
