Purpose of loan:
This loan will be used to? Pay off a debt to my college in the amount of $3000.00

My financial situation: I am in debt to my college for $3000.00.  They will not negotiate a payment plan longer than 3 months - which would make my payments $1200 a month, an amount I simply cannot afford right now.  To make matters worse, my pay dates are the 7th and 22nd; they require payment by the 20th, after that I am considered late.   My first payment is due August 20th (I did send them $700.00 in July and $500.00 for the month of August. 

I have been warned that it will go to collections in September at which point they will add 17% interest to the bill.  For my part I have tried negotiating with them one last time (to no avail), revised my W-4 so I can receive more income in my take home pay, got rid of cable and am in the process of selling non-essential items in my home to help pay down the bill. So far it has not been quite enough.

I appreciate anyone and everyone who takes the time to read my loan bid, whether you decide to fund it or not.

Thank you.
