Parents take out the Plus loan…not students. There are many other loan options for parents to consider. I will say that I know families who used the Plus Loans for their college kiddos. However, I know many more families who decided to go the home equity route. The Stafford Loans (and Perkins too, I believe) are not paid back until you graduate. Subsidized Stafford loans do NOT accrue interest while you are in school. Unsubs do.
