<p>I am 18 and just got in to Michigan tech, but my dad makes far to much money for alot of need based aid I am only offered 2,665 for school.</p>
<p>They (the parents) can not cosign for a student loan (bad credit) and i am having problems finding a loan that does not require one.</p>
<p>Any ideas that may help my predicament.</p>
<p>There are some loans that ask for a co-signer, but don't require one. I just got a private student loan from citibank. I applied with a co-signer to help me with the interest rate, but I could have applied on my own. Have you tried calling places...Citibank...Wachovia...Sallie Mae, just to get an idea?</p>
<p>I'm almost positive you can get a loan without a cosigner if you're 18 at myrichuncle.com</p>
<p>Yeah, but with my rich uncle you have to pledge to give a percent of your income to them upon graduation until your loan is paid off in full. And, I mean no monthly payment, just a percentage of your earnings for whatever job your get after graduating automatically going to my rich uncle. I feel as though that is a gamble, because what if you have bad luck and work at Micky D's after graduation? </p>
<p>Double check on my rich uncle, op, because for all I know they might have changed that rule (when I checked the out it was a year in a half ago).</p>
<p>Merlinjones- I just got a loan from there for this school year and i have no idea of what you're talking about.</p>
<p>Here is a direct quote from the article;"My Rich Uncle, a New York company, is offering human capital as an investment, setting up mutual funds of sorts for investors willing to provide students with funding for college in exchange for a percentage of future earnings."</p>
