Really Bad Credit and Personal Loans

Edwards Finance > Loans

Q. Ok so i am a college student with really bad credit. I filed bankruptcy last year, (will be 1 yr on July 13th), and i have one credit card that is open, in goodstanding, and current. My problem is this. I got an offer to go down to a fair to meet a rep for a job interview. It has been my dream to work with this company but i dont have the money to make it down to the interview. I live in NY and the interview is in NC. I really need to take out a loan so that i can get down there and get this job. If i do, the company will sponsor my internship for my degree. The only problem is, i guess i am considered a High Risk candidate for loans, since i declared bankruptcy only 1 yr ago. I am looking to take out a $700 loan (price for airfare, hotel, business clothes, and emergency money), which is not bad for me (as i work in a call center and can work overtime galore). But the problem is i need it now! (by the 25th of July to be exact). My question is, does anyone here know of any banks that will lend to high risk candidates??? Everywhere i turn, i get denied because of my horrible credit, and i hate the fact that i am going to loose a job offer because i couldnt afford the interview. Normally, i would have this money saved up, but i had a death in the family last month, and spent alot of my savings dealing with the funeral procedures.
