<human>: Well here is some backstory. My father got injured at work a few years back, lost his job, and has been unemployed for a few years. (He lives in California). My mother, (very very very recently remarried), has shit credit from her ex-fiance who screwed her over in  a lot of money. I currently have about ~$8000 in loans/grants, and the PLUS Loan is $16108. I really need at least most of it, because I am getting an apartment for roughly 550 dollars a month with 2 other guys. I dont want to screw them over, and I need to pay for school. 
Any ideas on where to get loans/scholarships? I know of fastweb and cappex, but the chances of getting them are too slim.

Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?
<bot>: I am poor as shit with 2 divorced parents with shitty credit and I need to get roughly $16000 in more loans/scholarships. Where do I go?
