Meg asked:


I took out two loans this year for college. One subsidized and one unsubsidized. I found out a week before school that I didn’t get a third loan I was supposed to receive. Because of this, I can’t afford to go to my school. Do I have to pay back those other loans now? Can they be transered and used at a different school? I’m in a huge mess right now.

Student loan?

mr.x asked:


Hi I was wondering. Lets say i get a 40,000$ student loan from bank of america ( I am going to FCCJ for aviation) would it be illegal for me to use about 4,000$ of this money for a car? Without a car, I can’t get to school which is about 30 miles away. I also have a job currently, but I don’t think I’ll have enough money before the start of classes next year. Anyone wants to help?

If a student carries a bad credit tag, the lenders are at risk in providing finance. However, bad credit student loans can be availed without many enquiries about history of payments that the borrower made in the past. But you must take your existing financial position and circumstances to qualify for these loans.

To start the process of getting the loan, you should file an online Free Application for Federal Student Aid. This application is required to assess your financial situation so that your eligibility for a government aid can be determined.

If it is found that you are financial weak, unable to afford the high expenses of collage education, then it simply means that you are eligible for federal Stafford loan, which do not take into account bad credit in approving the loan. These loans are of lower interest rate. The student is allowed to make the repayment six months after he or she has finished the collage studies.

The Stafford loans are categorized under subsidies or unsubsidized loans. The federal government will pay the interest on the subsidized loans, while the interest will be paid by the student in case of taking out unsubsidized loans.

If you do not qualify for the Stafford Loans, then your parents can take PLUS loans on your behalf. However, the parent must have a better credit rating than the student. In the event of the parent too having bad credit, the co-signer can take the loan for the student. The repayment of the loan will be made by the co-signer.

In case the students do not find these loans for any reason, or they want greater funding for costly courses, like law or medicine, then they can take bad credit student loans from private lenders. Such lenders will provide the loan against the borrower’s home or any valued asset. These loans can also be availed without collateral as unsecured loans. But, interest rate will go higher.

You should take out these loans in accordance to your circumstances and requirements. Make a good search for suitable deal, if you intend to take the loan from private lenders. Make timely repayments for improving your rating.

Product Description

Alan Collinge never imagined he would become a student loan justice activist. He planned to land a solid job after college, repay his student loan debt, and then simply forget the loans ever existed. Like millions of Americans, however, in spite of working hard, Collinge fell behind on payments and entered a labyrinthine student loan nightmare.

High school graduates can no longer put themselves through college for a few thousand dollars in loan debt. Today, the average undergraduate borrower leaves school with more than $20,000 in student loans, and for graduate students the average is a whopping $42,000. For the past twenty years, college tuition has increased at more than double the rate of inflation, with the cost largely shifting to student debt.

The Student Loan Scam is an exposé of the predatory nature of the $85-billion student loan industry. In this in-depth exploration, Collinge argues that student loans have become the most profitable, uncompetitive, and oppressive type of debt in American history. This has occurred in large part due to federal legislation passed since the mid-1990s that removed standard consumer protections from student loans-and allowed for massive penalties and draconian wealth-extraction mechanisms to collect this inflated debt.

Collinge covers the history of student loans, the rise of Sallie Mae, and how universities have profited at the expense of students. The book includes candid and compelling stories from people across the country about how both nonprofit and for-profit student loan companies, aided by poor legislation, have shattered their lives-and livelihoods. With nearly 5 million defaulted loans, this crisis is growing to epic proportions.

The Student Loan Scam takes an unflinching look at this unprecedented and pressing problem, while exposing the powerful organizations and individuals who caused it to happen. Ultimately, Collinge argues for the return of standard consumer protections for student loans, among other pragmatic solutions, in this clarion call for social action.
