Need $10K to tide me over this summer before I re-join my firm following my MBA. Where would you recommend getting a loan? I’d plan to pay back within a month of re-starting, so I’d just be paying interest for three months.

You shouldn't have a problem getting approved. Use Nerd Wallet to research which card has the best 0% interest on new purchases intro offer. You could also check if one of your current cards has a 0% interest balance transfer offer. I didn't have a problem getting cards like this when I was in undergrad.
