<p>I went with Wachovia. It seemed like the best one. </p>

<p>For sure, pick one of the top three, since they are the ones UCSD says provides the best service. And look at that chart they link you to to compare the benefits of each. </p>

<p>If I remember correctly, #2 has an origination fee, so that one was out, and then Wachovia just has more and better benefits. </p>

<p>That was my thinking anyway. Definitely don’t pick a lender blindly. >:0</p>
