Student loans

Is there anyway to get a student loan if you have one in default? I dont have the means to pay back the defaulted loan but I want to get a degree or certificate so I can get a good job and pay off the defaulted loan and the new student loan.

In the US, the way to do it is to check up with the relevant financial aid department - they're fairly flexible in general on student loans and the defaulting situation, especially when people get behind on payments, etc. Technically, you can't get more aid while in default, but getting the loans out of default sometimes means simply returning to school.

Talk to your financial aid counselor or what not - good luck, it should be possible to do what you plan provided you follow through.
