I need help and any ideas you guys can provide.


About two years ago, I apparently took out 3 loans totaling around $5000. I thought I was signing to get money from FAFSA, but apparently i was wrong. I was young and dumb and didnt look carefully enough.


Now I cant go back to school because of them! FAFSA wont give financial aid to those in default on loans.


 


Does anyone know of ANYTHING that would be able to help me get this out of default?


My only option as of now is to make 9 months worth of payments to get it out of default. The payments are $75, which shouldnt be that bad, but it is for me. I have limited income and UNLIMITED bills.


Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated.
