Student Loan Tips

Q:  Take Out Student Loans As The Last Resort
When you try to get all types of Financial Aid and you do not receive anything or if the amount of money is not enough try borrowing money by taking out loans.

Q:  Save Money On Repayment
If you ever are in a position to make an over payment on your loan without spreading your finances too thin, absolutely do it.

Q:  Apply For Student Loans On the Same Day
We are not sure if this tip is valid, but if you have to apply for more than one student loan (different banks) do it on the same day. This will prevent the second bank to see your first loan on the credit history and it will be easier to get qualified.

Important Questions

Q:  How long will it take to apply the forbearance to my account?
It takes at least 5-7 business days for a forbearance request to be approved or rejected. You will receive an acknowledgement in the mail if your forbearance request is approved and applied. No further action is required from you. If the request is rejected due to incomplete information, you will be notified by mail and you may resubmit the request.

Q:  Can student loan debt be written off in bankruptcy?
In general the answer is NO, but there are two exceptions to this rule. Follow the bankruptcy page on this website for more information.

Q:  Are interest payments required during deferment?
No. The borrower may choose to defer interest payments, as well as principal payments, while the student is in school. However, unpaid accrued interest is capitalized at repayment and increases the repayment amount. To reduce the overall cost of the loan, borrowers should consider making principal and interest payments while the student is in school.
