A guide to applying for the loan College
College loans are the most affordable option to pay for school. The two biggest advantages of college loans are:
1. Lower interest rates than other study loans
2. Repayment is deferred until you go to school.
Mainly there are two types of college loans.
1. Subsidized college loan: The government pays the interest on the loan while you are in school and during deferment and grace period. But students must demonstrate their "financial need" to qualify for a subsidized student loan.
2. Unsubsidized loan College: Student is responsible for all the interest, although the payment is deferred until graduation. All students are eligible for the College unsubsidized loan.
Some reasons why college loans are best:
1. Currently, interest rates are at a historic low, ie 3.37%. In school rates are lower, at 2.77%.
2. No credit check or collateral is required.
3. No co-signatories or guarantee fee required.
4. Tax deductions and flexible repayment options are available.
5. You can qualify for even lower rates by an automatic debit discount of 0.25% plus an interest rate of 2.0% after 48 consecutive on-time payments.
6. College student loans are eligible for a student loan consolidation.
7. You are no payments while in school.
