how do i get a student loan with out a cosigner when my parents have bad credit?

Asked by Chelsey B
My parents have bad credit and are not worthy cosigners for loans. i applied for federal, stafford, perkins, private, and all types of loans and have only been able to be approved with a cosigner. However, i do not have a cosigner and with the fall semester all ready underway, i am in desperate need of finanical aid. My mother has a disease called lupus, sometimes affects her work abilities and everyday life, 4 children and is without a job right now and we should be more elidgable for student aid and for federal loans but we were turned down for all of them. What should i do?
