<prompt> Human: My GPA is .18 under the SAP and have been denied financial aid, I already have everything including my apt. with a signed lease. I can pay for the apartment with money from my job. But as for tuition, what are some alternatives? I need the money soon, as in before next week, and I cant count on my parents right now because of some extenuating circumstances. I need about 6K. Thanks for the help guys.  <response>: Private loans might be an option, but doubtful they can turn around from application to funding in less than one week.Call your schools financial aid office and explain your situation, see if there is anything they can do.
