Hi everyone! So I'm going into my senior year in college at a private school in Boston. I have really enjoyed my experiences there but it has been an uphill battle ever since I entered its doors. Finances have always been an issue, I have always been in danger of not being able to return for the semester. Now that I am a senior a few changes have occurred. A few of the loan programs that I have used throughout my school career have been dissolved. This has left me with a sizeable balance that I owe the school. I have tried to take out loans but I need a cosigner. Since both of my parents cannot cosign due to bad credit, a private loan option isn't an option for me. Also no one in my family is willing to cosign, due to their bad credit and low incomes. I don't have any friends who would cosign for me either. As you can imagine this leaves me in a tough spot. It has gotten to a point that I was considering leaving my current institution but that wouldn't do me any good at all. I work and try to contribute a little but living in Boston is not cheap by any means. I would really appreciate help from anyone. Successful people don't generally become successful on their own, there is always one or a few people who gave them that chance.
