Paying for College
1

<p>My school offered me Stafford and PLUS loans. I’ve accepted that I’m going to have to take out loans, but I don’t want a PLUS loan. Despite what our EFC may say, my mother can’t afford to make monthly payments on a loan while I’m in college, so I want an additional loan for myself I can repay after I graduate.</p>

<p>Are there any others out there? I don’t even know where to look, I want to search on the internet but I’m so afraid of accidentally going onto a shady website.</p>

<p>Speak with your schools Financial Aid Office about an Alternative (Private) Loan. This way you are pretty much assured that the school and lender have an electronic agreement (for payment) and that you are dealing with a reputable lender.</p>
