Finding A Student Loan For Vocational and Trade Schools

VoTech Student Loans

I’ve made it no secret that the traditional 4 year degree is not for everyone. I made a post earlier that outlined the benefits a person can obtain with a 2 year degree from a vocational or trade school.

However, finding funding for a Vo-Tech or Trade school can be challenging. Not all lenders will make loans to these schools and a lot of these schools are not licensed or accredited. Traditional trade training such as Welding, Truck Driving or Machine Shop is a little easier to obtain these days than say a student loan to pay for Home Inspector, Cosmetology, Flight School, Culinary or Landscaping training.

Here are a few ways a person can fund their trip to a Vo-Tech or Trade School.

Feds Investigating Rampant Fraud In Student Loan Industry

Okay, a raise of hands from Students, past or present, who have obtained Student Loans and not felt like you were screwed or that there was something stinking about the whole relationship between your school and the lender. Yep, that’s what I thought, just about everyone.

Now there’s proof. The Feds are half assed poking around the Student Loan Industry and the stink is rising to the top.
