Help Tati pay for school and avoid private loans

Hey I'm Tatiana, a current premed student enrolled in a post bacc program, so it is considered a non degree program. I hate to ask for help but I felt like the financial aid office just completely left me in the dust regarding options for paying off my tuition. It's fine if we don't even reach the full amount but literally anything would help. I'm trying not to use private loans for my first semester because the FAFSA provides loans for two semesters only in a non degree program, and seeing as though the office failed to disburse my loan (that I very much applied for) this means I now am left to fulfill this balance on my own.The program is about 1.5-2 years in length so most of the time people have to pay out of pocket or get a private loan for their remaining 1-2 semesters. A private loan kind of scares me though for right now because I mean >lol< is it guaranteed I'll be financially stable in the future? Hmm. They also sold to us the idea that a bachelor's degree would "open so many doors". I would like to reduce the amount I owe in private loans as much as possible :( . 

On a more personal note... I find it difficult navigating through capitalism and trying to find financial and emotional stability after graduating from my undergraduate career. I'm still a first generation Dominican student and attempted to take some premed classes in undergrad but got C's in nearly all of them. In the infamous words of my advisor "I would not want a doctor that got a C in chemistry". I've bombed so many classes because not having support from my family causes me to find all the solutions on my own, and so I don't always excel in everything I do. In addition I do have depression and anxiety & just recently got medication for it, so my attention span suffers a lot and is why I need assistance for basic things. I also did not work a job this semester, I left my last job in February due to an awful, unsupportive work environment I worked while as an Oral Surgery Assistant. The doctors would just literally yell at their employees every week and throw insults so I am currently mentally recovering from that, cheers, we love to see it. I want to believe I'm not smart, but would want to keep pushing through anyways. So thus, here I am today.

I fully believe healing is my purpose, and is an important mission to be a part of. As always, you don't need to contribute but you can always share so that it ends up in Mark Zuckerberg's inbox thank u all xoxo
