How can I pay for school to finish my degree when I can't get a student loan and have bad credit?

Situation

I've been told that I've maxed out on my FAFSA student loans, and have bad credit and can't get a private loan. But I need to borrow money to go to school.

Problem

I need to get back to school to finish my engineering degree before my class credit expires.

Background

• I had to take out a personal loan and use my collage loan money in order to pay for a medical bills.

• I'm been trying to save money working two jobs for the past three years. But there is just no way I can afford collage out-of-pocket with jobs that pay non-degree wages.

• I'm really depressed about all of this as I don't see any hope or options for me.

How much is left

I have 22 hours left.

It costs ~$7,000/semester @ UNC Charlotte. I am willing to transfer to another school if I can justify the moving expenses compared to the money I could save.

Is there anything I can do?
