Help! How do I get a grant for college when my parents have bad credit? Should I get married first?
I’m planning to get married in a couple years, but I’m trying to go to college. My parents have bad credit and they say they can’t get loans and that a grant is a long shot or something…they are acting like I can’t even do it. But I want to. Would I have a better chance of getting loans and things when I’m declared independent from them and do newly married couples have a better shot at getting loans? Help!
Sarah, have you consider to apply for scholarship that you don’t have to pay back? Some friends of mine in college told me that they have valuable information regarding scholarships from this place.
Good luck
