...able to finish school? I am enrolled in graduate school to get my doctorate degree and I applied for financial aid via a FAFSA. I have been recently notified that I need to apply for a Parent PLUS loan. I understand I am a graduate student and I can apply for that as a student but I am concerned that I will not get approved for this financial aid due to my credit score. I have put myself thru college and do not have the best credit score out there. I am just concerned that I will not be able to finish my degree due to financial constraints and a credit score. Does anyone have any insight or advice regarding this matter. It would be greatly appreciated.
