I think you should worry more about paying the tuition at private college rather than getting accepted into one. Most private colleges do accept students regardless of your documentation but are you able to pay $30k~$40k out of your own pocket?

not really. that is y im looking for a private student loan. only problem is they might accept me as an international student thus more $$$ or not accept me at all. community college is pretty much screwed for me. *thank you for my stupidity. however i am not giving up on my education. thats y im looking for alternatives.. although im kind of losing hope. im not smart like other dreamers out there and made some mistakes in school but im willing to dig myself out. thank you for your response tho.

Of all the private colleges I know, not one charges extra to students from out of state or international.

My hippie college gave me a really good scholarship. I'd suggest looking into a very politically liberal institution.

sorry but you need a USC co-signer to get any kind of loan

if your grade isn't good in high school, attending community college for 2 years (and get a good grade in CC) and transferring to a good 4 year college isn't a bad idea. You can also save money because the tuition at community college is lower.

trust me, I understand how hard it is for you and it will be hard when you study while working but I suggest you attend your state college while working your way part time in restaurant.. (hope your state provide in-state tuition for undocumented..)

yes my state does give me an in-state tuition. problem is im 22 yrs old and i haven't done anything. and it feels like its taking forever to finish an AA degree in CC. i do not want to be in a private school with debts and all that but. that seems to be the only way to finish. :'(.... sometimes i just wish that some random gang-banger would just shoot me randomly or maybe a bus could hit me like in the news... no luck tho.. im running out of choices.

well, we can't be in debt because we can't get loans at all (unless you have a US citizen co-sign a loan for you)

AA is 2 years. Then, you can attend a senior college for another 2 years, which will give you a 4 year degree.

the only way to pay for college for me was to work for tuition while attending in-state school.

there are kids in Georgia who can't go to school at all.. so we should at least be thankful that our state provides in-state?
