Check with your student loan provider.  Ask about Consolidation - they will consolidate all of your student loans into one payment.  There is also a graduated payment plan where you start out with smaller payments the first couple of years and they gradually go up as your income likely goes up. \n\nFinally, if you are in a financial bind, you can ask for a forebarence and they will stop your payments - but not your interest - four a couple of months.  \n\nBut to pay them off fast - pay as much toward it as you can.

check with the schools financial aid office. ask for scholarships or student loan programs. check out tuition waivers based on gpa performance. also, find out if you qualify for that funding, being that you are an international student.

i work at a university and unless students are perm residents or us citizens they can only get loans that are co-signed. otherwise, they're are not allowed to enter the US unless they have the funds to support themselves for the time they're earning their degree.  if you're enrolled in a us university, you should speak to a financial aid officer or visit the university's website for financial aid and the one for international students.  even if you're not enrolled at this time you can visit the schools website to get the info you need.  at the university where i work they try to put as much info as possible on the website for students, parents, and employees and most of it is available to anyone surfing the web

Try FAFSA, and sometimes states have loan help too.  Also, I am not an expert but what about any other of your relatives.

You could apply for a Stafford Loan. They come subsidised where the government pays the interest while you are in college. \n\nhttp://studentaid.ed.gov/students/publications/student_guide/2004_2005/english/types-stafford.htm

Federal student loans like Stafford and Perkins require no credit check, so apply for those first using the FAFSA: http://www.fafsa.ed.gov\n\nAs for private educational loans...\n\nIf you have a credit-worthy cosigner, the possibilities are endless.  Their credit acts as sort of a "stand-in" for yours.  Do your best to find someone to co-sign for you.  If they are hesitant, look for a loan with a "co-signer release."  This release will let the co-signer off the hook after you make a certain number of payments on time (usually 3 or 4 years worth).  \n\nAs you probably have found, now that you have bankruptcy in your past, you are considered a high-risk borrower on your own.  Any company willing to lend you money will itself be somewhat "high risk" -- the only way they can afford to lend to you is to offer exceedingly high interest rates and unfavorable repayment terms. I hesitate to recommend any specific company since most companies of this ilk are going to be a little disreputable.  I found a few by searching Yahoo! for terms like "bad credit unscecured loan" or "bad credit personal loan."  The loan won't be ideal, but if you can repay it in a timely fashion, you might be able to improve your credit enough to qualify for a lower-rate loan, which you can then use to pay off the "sketchy" bad credit loan.

I might suggest talking to the Financial aid folks at the University that you are interested. At least they might be able to point you in the right direction.

You speak to the financial advisor of that school.  You can apply for loans and grants.  They will assist you with all you need to know in paying for school.

What kind of funding sources?  Federal? Private? Loan? Grant?\n\nFederal Loans & Grants:\nIf you don't have an allocation of Campus-Based Aid like Federal Perkins, Federal SEO Grant, and Federal Work-Study, apply for it using the FISAP (it's not a fun application and you may not get much, but every dime helps, right?) Apply here: http://www.ifap.ed.gov/IFAPWebApp/currentCBPMaterialsListPag.jsp?p1=FISAP+Form%2FInstructions&p2=c\n\nPrivate Loans:\nFor private loan options, FinAid.org has a great list of private loans that your students can select from: http://www.finaid.org/loans/privatestudentloans.phtml . And if you need loan brochures, contact your lender rep and you'll get more than you could ever imagine needing.  For our students, we weighed all our options and picked Sallie Mae's Signature Loan, Citibanks' CitiAssist, and the TERI loan through Citizens Bank.  Every school seems to pick different loans, though -- your choices have to reflect the lifestyle of your students.  Are they going to enter high-paying jobs?  Or are they likely to have difficulty keeping track of their payments.  I picked one loan (not listed above, since it's specific to Massachusetts schools) specifically because it offers a fixed-rate option that I thought would benefits our students who won't take the time to monitor their every-changing interest rates.  But it really depends on your and your students.  You should, however, keep your students' interests at heart, as tempting as it can sometimes be to focus on what you as a school might prefer (i.e. ease of processing).\n\nPrivate Scholarships/Grants:\nThere are so many of these that you can't possibly spend all your time tracking them down for your students.  You can give them a taste of what's out there by sending them here: http://www.finaid.org/scholarships/ (to click on all the links)\n\nThen tell them to look for their own private scholarships at their local libraries, churches, clubs/associations, and high schools, as well as online at any of these sites.\nhttp://www.fastweb.com\nhttp://www.srnexpress.com\nhttp://www.scholarships.com\nhttp://www.scholarships101.com\nhttp://www.finaid.org/scholarships\nhttp://apps.collegeboard.com/cbsearch_ss/welcome.jsp\nhttp://services.princetonreview.com/default.asp?RUN=%2Fcollege%2Ffinance%2Fscholar%2FscholInterview%2Easp&RCN=auth&RDN=7&ALD=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eprincetonreview%2Ecom\nhttp://www.collegeanswer.com/paying/content/pay_free_money.jsp\n----------------------\nFor advice of this ilk, I highly recommend joining up with a professional financial aid association.  Every state has their own and there are regional and national (NASFAA) associations.  These associations provide wonderful forums for sharing ideas, solving problems, establishing outreach programs, and networking. For a list of these associations, try: http://www.nasfaa.org/annualpubs/regstateweb.html
