Federal student loans do not need a cosigner. Your Uncle Sam is guaranteeing them. If you are not applying for a federal student loan, but trying to get an alternative educational loan, some lenders, such as Bank One, will review financial information for a retired co-signer, as long as they submit 1099's (certain tax documents) that they have received for the prior two years.
