I have always dreamed of going to school, and now I have actually found the school I want to attend. The problem is I have bad credit, and I have no one to use as a co-signer. And this school is costly and I have no real way of cutting cost, anybody know any helpful advise?

It is wonderful that you have decided to go back to school... I have been thinking the same thing myself... But I live in Canada and here we have uneployment. With my unemployment I can quit my job and go back to school. Unemployment will give me money (a pay cheque) mind you not as large as I would if I were working, to help me make it through. OR if I kept working and did let's say night courses unemployment would if I can prove that I need it assist me with books and tuition. I checked your profile and you are in the USA, I don't know if your Human Resources would offer you the same thing... It would be worth looking into. Also since you are an adult (over 25 years etc...) you may qualify as a mature student and could get a discount off the tuition or be allowed to make payments (depends on the school) I suggest you contact the schooland see what their policy is. Good Luck to you and I hope you are able to go to school!
If you don't mind me asking what is it you would like to do? (career subject of study)

First let me say thanks for the feed back it is certainly worth looking into. And well I have decided that I would love to go after a degree in Art. Since that has always been my passion. You said that you are thinking about school what field intrest you if you don't me asking?
