How can I get 10k a year in student loans with no credit and no cosigner? Or can I?

Well, I was all set to go to college til at the last minute my dad decided it wasn't his responsibility to chip in a dime, and, on top of that, he said he won't cosign ANYTHING. My aid letter gives me a few low level federal loans, but I still have a 10k gap to fill, which makes sense because my EFC is 10k. Plus, he makes way too much money for me to qualify for any "need" based assistance. Any ideas?

    You can't. All private student loans require a co-signer. Even if you did have excellent credit you would still need to have a co-signer. Federal loans are your only option, sorry.
