Ok need help want to go to colledge?

Question

Ok i filled out the federal student aid and my efc was 12970,wtf. I live on my own and im 24 so parents dont count. I finally got my head on straight and am trying to pay off credit debts so I know a loan will never happen,lol. I could just sell some dope and get the money but then I would be back at the same d**n life I am trying to forget. I make too much to get aid and not enough to pay off debts quick enough or anytime soon to qualify for loans. any advice

Answer 1

Best suggestion for you would be to look at scholarships and grants and see if you qualify for any of those. You could look into a work-study program that would help pay for school. There are a lot of scholarships out there that are pretty interesting as well. Hope this helps some. Best of luck!

Answer 2

The scholarship information is a great idea.  Believe me, If you can help it you want to take out as few loans as possible.  I'm still paying them off 15 years later.  A few angles you can use would be if you are in an organization, do any type of volunteer work or belong to any ethnic group.
