tmac01 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 I am almost done with my Masters as I will be done this summer. I found out today that they can only give me half the money I need so i have to get it elswhere, $5,000. #1 what is my best option. #2 I need a loan company that is going to check EQ. #3 is a private loan a bad way to go ? What does anyone no about Suntrust ? Thanks ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilton1 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Tmac, I am assuming Stafford is out of the question. I have spoken to sallie mae and they told me they check equifax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilton1 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Congratulations!!Did you still need cosigner!!! I will need to get loan with them and I dont want to have to get a cosigner.Is this the grad plus loan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac01 Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 No I didn't need a Co-Signer but I got the loan that goes to your school and then whats left over goes back to you or them. The lady at Salle Mae told me that that type of loan was easier to get approved then the loan where they just send you the money direct. Try it and let me know how it goes Chilton...I was also told about a loan co. called something door....I'll have to get the name but I heard they give anyone a loan....I'll check and post...thanks !!!!

chilton1 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Thanks Tmac01. I think i will qualify for that loan. Collect america is not reporting on my equifax now. I am now at 700 and only two charge offs. No collections only HSBC orchard card and Providain OC. I am going to work on those soon. Again good luck. Let me know the name when you find itChilton1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
