Loans are a bad idea if you can avoid them. I think you should try getting any job that pays under the table and use the money to finance your education.

You're not like the other kids. The sooner you realize this, the more focused you can be on your goals. What I mean is that you're not going to be able to get a legit job, apply for loans, Federal Aid, or have rich parents (well maybe you do). You have to do the shit work - wash dishes, work constructions, wash cars, wash dogs (a lot of washing), and do absolutely what can do to survive at sub-par pay.

That's how it is. Welcome to hell!

Why get loans you may not be able to pay off?

For a while I been thinking about organizing a student run promotions company that uses all of it's profits to give scholarships to undocumented immigrants. I know that does not help you but I wanted to run that idea in here and see if any of you have opinions about it.

Talk to financial aid about receiving institutional grants or scholarships. They have plenty of money at the beginning of the school year, you just have to ask. Some scholarships are need-based only, but since you can't fill out the FAFSA, you have to explain to financial aid that you do have a need but can't demonstrate it. Their are ways around this, like writing a notarized letter stating need, but you'll never know if you don't ask!

Btw, that is how I'm going through college.

Get a job. Don't waste your time with the Occupy Wall Street whiners.
