Have $10K in debt owed to university from 2016... where can I get a personal loan to pay it off?

You will not be able to get either one of these types of jobs with out a Masters degree. I remember getting my masters in school counseling (worked a full time job, went to school full time and parented a child). I also teach graduate courses in school counseling where most of my students are working paid jobs along with doing their practicums/internships and attending classes.

As I told blossom, this was more or less something I was thinking about later down the road after getting the graduate degree.

It seems that people are offering you solutions and you are coming up with reasons as to why you can’t do these things. Unfortunately there is no easy out going around your situation. You are going to have to roll up your sleeves and work a full time and a part time job.

If I have more than 2 years before my credits expire, than yeah, I can definitely listen to the advice given on here. But as I mentioned before in this thread, if I go down to my school’s registrar’s office & they tell me that my credits expire within 5 years, like I’ve heard before, then I need something that will help me pay off that debt in less than a year. Only a job where I can make over $25/hour (like that census job someone pointed out earlier) will get me anywhere close to that timeline.

it doesn’t matter what the job is. right now you are doing anything and interest is still racking up on your debt. You need a part time job where you are doing nothing with that money but use it to pay off your debt. Even if you make $200 a week, you can have it paid off in 13 months. Yes, it sounds painful and yes, it is going to be painful. A year is going to pass any way and with your list of excuses, you are still going to be in the same situation an year from now, unless you do something about it now.

It does matter what kind of job it is, because it needs to be high paying enough to be worth my time. 13 months might be too long, so if it is, then I would need to bring in like $320/month extra minimum or more.
