My program is an odd cohort and has a required summer semester where I have to take 3 classes. Each class is 3k, most students in my class seem to be either borrowing money from family or taking out private loans.
The first option doesn't work because I've already asked them and they supported me for my first two semesters and now they're telling me to start working and pay them back.
The second option wouldn't work because my family has no proof of income, nobody's working.
I'm thinking of just telling my program director I won't be attending the summer semester due to personal situation but I feel like I should take out a private student loan and graduate on time.
Edit: I’m in cybersecurity and live in the D.C. metropolitan area
