I am a graduating senior this year, class of 2009. I will be going to a private institution within my home state of Florida, St Leo. I have Full-Aid to go there i.e. scholarships/grants/loans that cover the entire cost! Unfortunately, my funds will not be coming to me until the school year has started.

There is an option for incoming Freshmen, limited to only 16 freshmen on a first-come, first-serve basis. It is for a trip to Ecuador for 12 days and counts for a three credit score and would start and end all right before we actually move in. The trip cost is 1695USD and the deposit is 500.00 non-refundable by June 1. The rest, if accepted, is due by July 10th. I am 17; my birthday is in August, the 15th. I want to take out a student loan that I could repay back completely within 3 months, after I receive my funds, which include Stafford loans. Is there any sites that I could do it with that would not need a cosigner, since my Mom has no credit, my dad is gone, and all other family is dealing with suffering credit right now, so I'm trying to find without cosinger, if possible? PLz and thank you!!!
3 Credit COURSE**


And emphasis on **17**
 
You don't need this trip to Ecuador. You don't have the money for this trip. Three credits is just worth one basic class and those three credit hours aren't really going to help you. There are going to be plenty of other opportunities for you to travel while you're in high school; this is not a once-in-a-lifetime trip and you would do better working during the summer instead.
