How do i get financial aid and loans to pay for an apartment?

While i’m attending a community college
i have one sister who is already in college and i hear you get more financial aid
but i dont want to live in the dorms, i want to live in a really cheap apartment
so how can i get financial aid and loans that will cover my tuition (pretty cheap since its community college) and be able to pay 250 a month for rent?

After your tuition is paid with your financial aid package, the school will give you a check and you can use for whatever you want. Be aware that loans must be repaid so the amount seems low now but once you figure in interest it will rise. You should never accept more loans than you are comfortable repaying.

  2. Financial aid won’t necessarily cover rent and expenses. You will not be awarded more than the estimated cost of attendance at your school. This may yield you money leftover, and you may receive a check… but, not everyone does. If you do receive a check, it won’t be until 4-6 weeks after the semester begins so you’ll have to pay up until then. Most places require that you sign a 10-month (for student sometimes) or 1 year lease. If you break the lease because you cannot afford it, they can sue you for the amount until the lease is up. Plus, you’re going to be paying your loans back with interest. If you want to live in an apartment… get a job so you can pay the bills. Then, if you get a refund great, but if not you’ll still be fine.

  3. Whenever I am in need of some quick cash, I use this service called Smart Term Loans. Theyll loan you money for jewelry and other valuables. When you pay your loan back, they send your stuff back. Its been a pretty big life saver for me…
