"Hi, my name is Brooke Kramer and I am a financial aid officer at Argosy University in Salt Lake City. And today we're talking getting student loans without a co-signer. Student loans are available to students who don't have a co-signer available and these are federal loans. So the first thing you're going to want to do is complete a free application for federal student aid. You can find this at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Once you complete this application your school will notify you what loans are awarded to you. And again these loans don't require that you have a co-signer. If you are a dependent student though, you will need your parents' forms in order to complete part of the free application for federal aid. Once you have been awarded your school will notify you the next process in order to receive your student aid and pretty much how it's going to work for the upcoming school year. If you have any other questions, please feel free to check out our website at www.argosy.edu."
