Can I get student loans still?
I have my BS in accounting and my MS in education. Finding a teaching job here just isn't working and I don't really want to go into the city. I was thinking of going back to school part time for something else, I haven't decided what yet.
Can I still get financial aid?

Re: Can I get student loans still?
I went back for a second bachelors degree and from my research, I found that I was ineligible for federal or state grants, since I already had a BA, but I think I would have been able to get student loans (most likely non-subisdized ones.)
You should also check admission requirements very carefully. I lived in another state at the time, and some of the state schools that had better reputations, and were harder to get accepted to, did not accept candidates for second bachelors degrees. Depending on what you want to do, you might be better off doing some undergrad work and getting a masters in another subject. In my case, doing a second bachelors made more sense.

There is a lifetime cap of $138,500 for Stafford Loans for graduate school. Im not sure if that is combined with a husband/wife (I doubt it).
you probably wont get any subsudized loans though. but I just make the payments each month during school so the interest doesnt accrue.
