A simple one word answer in NO. In law, the contract of a minor is voidable (by the minor) not void. Practicably, lenders do not lend to a minor because it is not enforcable. But if a minor gets a co-borrower or guarantor on a loan, then he/she will have a better chance of acquiring a loan. Another way is to obtain a collateralized loan.
