<p>Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, I'm new to CC. </p>
<p>What loans do people usually use if they can't pay for college and don't qualify for financial aid? </p>
<p>If someone could refer me to a website or something that would be great.</p>
<p>Finaid.org is a good source of loan info. Are you a student or a parent? Stafford (federal) loans are available to all students as long as they file FAFSA (and don’t have drug convictions while they’re receiving federal aid)…$5500 for freshmen, $6500 for sophomores, and $7500 for juniors/seniors. Parents can apply for federal Plus loans. Your state may also have an education loan program in place. There are many private education lenders - Discover and Wells Fargo often get high marks from posters here. Many parents choose to use home equity loans due to the more favorable rates.</p>
<p>Thank you for the information! I’m a student</p>
