<p>Is financial aid (loans) available for post bachelor students?</p>
<p>My son completed his BS degree in May in Finance. He has not found a job my yet.
He is interested in taking 4 accounting classes which would give him 24 accounting credits.</p>
<p>Is he eligible for a loan?</p>
<p>What is the best place to apply that would have it for him by fall semester?</p>
<p>Is your son continuing at his old school or is he looking at a cheaper place such as a community college?</p>
<p>I’d suggest that he approach his previous lender(s) first to ask about the money. Find out if he needs to be in some kind of a degree program in order to receive a loan. He may be able to be admitted as some kind of transfer student for the fall term.</p>
<p>he is interested in returing to the school where he received his degree,</p>
<p>He always received Direct Studnt Loans, but
I think if you are not admitted to a program financial aid through the school is not available.</p>
<p>Is he eligible to get government loans direct without going through the school. Does anyone have any information on that?</p>
<p>Also, where is the best place to get student loans in case we have to get it from a private lender?</p>
<p>If he is admitted to a degree program as a post bachelor, he will be eligible for undergrad loans. The annual limit depends on the program. A post bach program requires an Educational Plan of Work. Contact admissions to find out if he can be admitted into a regular program that would be eligible for financial aid, then contact financial aid to find out his actual eligibility.</p>
<p>He can also apply for an educational loan through a private lender. He cannot get a Stafford, Perkins, or PLUS loan without being in a degree program, but some private lenders may lend for this purpose.</p>
<p>No Pell, SEOG, or work study even if he is admitted into a degree program.</p>
