I don't get chit for college. Parents (mom/step-dad) make 101k per year even though it's with 5 kids I got absolutely nothing from fasfa.
Got one 5,000 dollar school scholarship and this like a 1,400 dollar random scholarship I applied for.

So it comes down to having a ton of student debt via loans. Where do I go, which loans should I get?

A loan shark or the mafia is your best bet


Or based off your sig, ask God

grants are the free money.

Down to plusloans, stafford, or perkins it seems

I head they have awesome loan rates

there should be other avenue's other than fasfa offered by your gov't. If not I would check out banks and see which one has the best interest %. If you are able to work part time during school while living at home you should alright with any loan you get.Alot of banks where I live have student loans and only make you pay the interest % while in school,which is like 50$ a month.

Register yourself as an indepentent student and re-do your fasfa

For loans, go with federal loan

loans are issued by the government in the uk
