I did the cardinal sin. I stopped working before squaring away a private loan. Are there any companies that don't care about income?
My credit is perfect, no lates, 12 years, 760ish score.

Did you fill out the FAFSA forms? I'm not working either and I've always qualified for the student loans. You can fill this out online if you need to.
Yes, I got a stafford. I'm looking for something to help pay the mortage. I'll be working part time after the first semester is done, but not full time and not till January.

I know government loans you can get away with that, but private loans, I'm not sure. Try searching "no doc" private student loans. Good Luck!

I was in the same boat. Chase student loans is who I used. I can get up to 40000 per year while I am in school and can use it for whatever I need. The money comes straight to you, not the school, for you to do as you need. I was going to go with Sallie Mae or Astrive but they wanted money up front for the loan and Chase tacked it onto the loan amount. I have a TOTAL deferral until 6 months after I graduate.
