<prompt> Human: Disclaimer: this is for my girlfriend, not me, so I may be lacking some details.My girlfriend dealt with PTSD, severe anxiety, and depression through high school she was raised in an unbelievably terrible home and early college. She had a hard time being outside, around people, or being in the academic environment. In both high school and college, she had difficulty attending classes, doing homework, and things of that nature. She had to get a HED because her grades werent very good. She leaned the msyerial, but never turned in homework or took exams. This made her transcript unattractive.Come college, it was the same story. Only now, it had gotten to the point where she is uneligable for any federal aid until she completes 51 more credits finishes her associates. Her highschool credentials also make scholarships difficult. She has no family that can held financially.Our community college is 300 per class per semester. We can afford one per semester for her, but itll take far too long to finish an associates degree.Is there anything that can be done? How bad would a private loan be? I refuse to believe her only option to take 5 years on her associates.Tldr: Not eligible for financial aid. How can we pay for school?  <response>: Before she considers going into debt for this, she needs to be realistic about her future plans. What is she planning to study? What type of careerjobs is she interested in? Is a college degree really necessary for those goals?
