Am I Responsible For My Ex Husbands Student Loans?

Student Loans

Penny M. from Oregon asked: I’m an older woman who wants to go to College. I have two kids that are 10 and 13. My problem is that every time I apply for student loans, they decline me because of some outstanding student loans that are my ex-husbands. I’ve been told by more than several of these loan companies that since we were married, I’m responsible for half of these loans. It doesn’t seem fair that I can’t get a Student Loan because my ex-husband didn’t pay off his $30,000 student loans. I can’t afford to pay these loans myself and my ex husband refuses to pay on them. How can I get money to go to College?
