There are a few options to go with. Of course, fill out a FAFSA so that way you can see if you qualify for a Pell Grant and Federal loans. After that there are a few options. The preferred lenders list is usually a good one to go off of. They have a history with the school often and are used to working with the students of Becker. You can also go for the big banks such as Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, etc. Also there is MEFA (mefa.org) That's through the state of Massachusetts and can provide another option. These loans are through the state, but also based on credit worthiness like a private loan. Sallie Mae is a huge one as well.
Thank for all the information! I had already done my FASFA and received loans through that but it was only for like 10k. I applied through citizens bank for the trufit student loan ( with a co signer) and was declined! I don't know what to do, I don't want to just keep applying everywhere.

Question for everyone, to pay for my school in the fall (becker) I need a private loan as well. I have never had a private loan and was wondering who to go through? Obviously I can see who my schools preferred lenders are, but wanted some personal insight from those who are going through, have gone through the process.
Thanks!
