Hmm...I am repairing my credit right now and don't really care about my scores. They are not maxed out. You would understand from my credit profile that its not too bad and I can pick it back up. I am concentrating completely in obtaining PFDs for those two baddies. My scores will eventually come. I will take one hit now with some lender.
Do you have anything you could sell? Friends/family you can borrow from? Get an advance from work? Any other alternative?
Nope! I am only a grad student with a part time job. Unfortunately no other options. Ive got my car and my laptop and lotsa books and thats that! Are you interested in any particular books? Ive got a wide collection

Ha. Actually that was one of the things I did whilst I was in school as well as working. Selling my books to the people in the semester behind me. If I kept them I was just going to have to move them with me every time I went somewhere else and I really didn't need them any longer. Some schools have a program where the book store will buy them back from you too.

Yes, our school has a program like that, even if they don't pay too much.
I have already bought used books from students on amazon marketplace. That works nicely, although probably not this month, right at the end of the semester.
