My girlfriend just aged out of the parent loan that her mom was helping her with and since her credit isn't great she was denied a personal loan (she already has a federal loan that won't cover it). She only has 2 semesters left of school but it ends up being over 30k and we're both freaking out over how she can get the money to graduate. It wouldn't be awful to pay it back over time after graduating because she'll be able to make good money, but if she's forced to drop out now she'll need to start paying back what she's already borrowed with a restaurant or office job while also paying for rent, car, etc. At that rate she'll be paying thousands a year for a degree she never received and probably won't be able to afford to go back any time soon.
It's a long shot, but what are our options here? Is there a way she can get that kind of money to finish school with a 600-something credit score?
