Can I get a student loan to cover off campus housing?!? (NYC)?
I live upstate, but ill be going to college in NYC. And im gonna need somewhere to live. I am looking for 3 roomates right now so we will split housing 4 ways.
Almost all of the colleges im applying too are 2 year and dont have any dorms. So I need to know what to do. Im so confused on everything. Im obviously going to need a big loan. My tuition for all the schools isnt high at all.
(I'm applying to all CUNY Schools.)

not necessarily
student loans are intended for "academic related expenses" and are disbursed to your school to apply towards your tuition expenses first and foremost.
any extra that is leftover can be disbursed to the student to apply for extra costs, including books and housing.
but they don't give student loans specifically designed to pay for housing.

You maxed out your government college loans, that's in step with what the government thinks you may arise with the money for and in many circumstances that I no longer the actuality of the area. you're able to be able to desire to aim to take out a private college very own loan however the interest fee would be greater and that they're going to dogs you speedier in case you do no longer pay. remember tutorial loans are under no circumstances written off, even for financial ruin. So i does no longer take a private very own loan. paintings-section time, pass to a extra much less costly college, possibly pass to college section-time? Sorry it consistently isn't that trouble-free. no count if it is your mom and dad earnings it is preserving you from extra government loans, you're able to desire to be 24 to be seen as self sufficient or in case you particularly are on your man or woman you may follow for that status with your financial help workplace regardless of the undeniable fact that it in all probability is to previous due for next fall.
