Credit Card Debt

Student Experiences

Hello,

I’m planning on starting ATP soon here in PIT but I’ve about $12,000 in credit card debt. I’m wondering if anyone here who applied for financing had any problems securing Salie Mae loans due to their credit card debt. Please share you experience.

Thank you.

Purna,

I suspect the word “co-signer” will come into the conversation with Sallie.

Purna,

$12,000 credit card debt is quite significant, I was young in my 20’s with no credit card debt and only school loans that valued no more than 1/2 the cost of ATP…I needed a cosigner. I recommend calling the finance department and seeing what advise they may have for you other than paying off the credit card debt immediately.
