HUGE problem. need help...now.

<p>my friend really wants to go to maryland and his mom is even tapping into her retirement fund to get out some money. yes, i heard it was a bad idea but that's what she wants to do.</p>

<p>there is however, still some money that goes unpaid so they'll have to take out loans. his mom doesn't really have good credit, though. i heard student loans are, however, more lenient with that because..well it's for college, not for like a car. is this true, though?</p>

<p>what are his other options?? he can't confirm until he figures everything out, and he's been invited to markets and society. he's VERY worried that it's filled up...anyyyyyyy help would be GLADLY appreciated.</p>

<p>i really wish i knew about any of this. I think you should also post this in the financial aid section of this site. </p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>post this in the parent's forum, it'll help.</p>

<p>ok thanks guys..i will do that.</p>
