My inheritance
I got a federal stafford loan for 7500, split between both semesters first. That covered all but about 400 bucks of my tuition 
Then I went through discover student loans for a 10k private loan, and needed my dad to cosign. This again is split between both semesters. It's hard to find someone that will give you a student loan, because 33 dedicated student loan companies have gone out of business, and banks themselves are very weary to do so. You need a great credit score, or a cosigner with a great credit score if you want to have any chance. I was turned down the first time I applied in Oct., with my dad cosigning. He's worth well over 3 mil, and has a few points shy of a perfect credit score. How I was turned down I don't know... Good luck
