    BK & Loan


    #2
    FYI, I moved this thread to the proper section of the forum.

    If your husband if filing and not you, then you should be able to acquire a loan for the reason of returning to school. Even if you're filing jointly, the BK wouldn't dis-qualify for a school loan.
    Bankruptcy History:
    Chapter 7 filed - 10/12/2005 - Asset
    Discharged - 02/16/2006
    Case Closed - 11/08/2007

        It is possible to get student loans after filing bankruptcy. Read all about it here - http://www.finaid.org/questions/bankruptcy.phtml . Pay special attention to the first section, Bankruptcy and Eligibility for Financial Aid. Good luck to you!
        I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice nor a statement of the law - only a lawyer can provide those.

          go directly through the governent site; www.ed.gov
          They will check your credit to see if you've defaulted on a student loan. Other than that- they won't deny you based on credit. Their student loans are based on need. Private lenders on the other hand- will deny you due to credit. Or give you an outrageous interest rate. The federal loans are capped at 6.8%, and your school will verify for them how much you qualify for in regards to tuition fees.
