Thanks sk8rmom & kelsmom. I’m looking into the unsub loan since as a last option since that will solve the problem for this semester. An extra $600 in addition to what’s remaining of my refund seems like it would be enough. And dropping out would be really hard for me as I really enjoy my classes this semester.

Also, I’m really hard now at places on the town…mainly restaurants and other chain fast food places. Since I don’t really even care about going home during breaks, I’m hoping that will be a plus since many students leave for the week long thanksgiving and month long winter break. We’ll see where that takes me.

Since i still have my spring semester Work Study, I’m hoping that I will be able to continue with dining services or somewhere on campus starting in January, especially since there will be openings from graduating seniors. So looking at things that way, my only problem months in regards to money are November through January, which isn’t as bad as it seemed at first.

Does anyone know about how long it would take to get the extra money from the federal loan?

Thanks everyone else for your replies!
