I have an old student loan that i’ve been paying like forever. If some of these students had any idea how tough it is to pay them they would think twice about borrowing so freely.

It seems as though the problem with student debt has been an everlasting one. But is it not always the case? You usually do not have a lot of money while studying – and tends to take on loans in order to get everyhting to work properly. However once you get settled you can easily pay those back.

I dont think student loans are ever a good idea. They usually have a much higher interest rate than other loans and often have many hidden terms. I think we should be encouraging students to get part time jobs and save for their studies instead of borrowing.

Well, its logical students get more loans than last year. Because many of them have parents hardly hit by the economic crisis. Think of it as a weird domino effect.

As the interest rate from the government is low,definitely the number of student who will aply for a loan will be more in a government organization than in private institutions.I totally agree onm the fact that the higher cost of tution is the main cause for this loans. People are spending a lot of money on their private tution and after they get job they are not even getting more salary to componsate that.

Yes,I have a question. I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. I owe my former school money, about 5,000 dollars worth. I cannot get transcripts so that I can enroll in nursing school until I pay them back. What would be a good way to find money to pay them off so I can go back to school.
