Hi,

Before you apply for student loans make sure you have applied for any possible scholarships or grants offered through your college or university or your field of study. If you have checked those options out already, then make sure to apply for Federal financial aid by filling out a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to see if you are eligible for any additional grants or Federal Student Loans. This is an official financial aid application form that is used by most colleges and universities to help determine your financial aid package. You can find the FAFSA application and instructions for applying at fafsa.ed.gov.

Because you are looking to borrow such a high amount, Federal aid may not cover the whole thing, since there are yearly and lifetime caps depending on year of study and whether you are a dependent or independent student.

If you need the entire sum of $15,000 up front, I suggest that you look into applying for a private student loan, which is offered through banks and private lenders such as OneSimpleLoan (http://www.onesimpleloan.com). When you qualify for a private student loan, you could receive up to $45,000 a year from some lenders and many times you can get the funds you need in as little as a few days. Also keep in mind that private student loans are credit-based, meaning that you must have a good credit record. So it’s a good idea to have a co-signer with a good credit history to co-sign the loan to increase your chances for approval.

I looked under a group called "student grants".
