Hi there, Imma get to the point. I want to attend college this fall semester. My parents aren’t helping me and I want to get a loan. For like maybe 25k. My credit score is better than theirs and they are not willing to cosign. I know there’s no guarantee lender to approve me but I also don’t want to keep running my credit. So where is the best place to try to get a loan from? Thank you in advance!
The best place to get a loan?

FSA will give a loan but it will be very small. A bank or credit union may offer private loans but again, they will be small because of your age. Your credit score means nothing because your file is probably very thin or empty due to your age.
Alas, it doesn’t seem that you can afford this school.
Have you filled out the FAFSA?
As a dependent undergrad student you can borrow up to $5.5k for your freshman year.
Private student loans are predatory.
