My mom is pushing me to join the Navy but my other family is pushing for college (Univ of South Carolina). I will not have any financial support from my family. I have given serious thought towards joining, and I wouldn’t mind it, but I can’t help but feel like I should be going to college. Yes I can use the GI bill but realistically, I would get my degree faster going full time and I’ve always wanted to be an officer. I’m academically competitive but scholarships are so hard to get and I really don’t want to take out outrageous loans. What is the smartest thing to do that will put me in a better position in the long term?

I did FAFSA but only got $1,250 a semester for a loan threw them . I got declined the salliemae loan. But I had my mom as a cosigner and she has bad credit do you think I would have been better off without having her on there?..Also what are some loans you think are good. Im only 17 and my parents will not cosign at all. I need to take like friggin $5,000 out now. I don’t know what else to do. This needs to be a fast one because I still need a book for school.
I ALREADY tried the salliemae I didn’t get it. Any other ones?
