www.about-student-loans.com College expenses can add up fast. Once you’ve managed to pay tuition, there are many other education-related costs such as books, lodging, food, and lab fees. With all these expenses, student loans become an excellent option. Bank of America offers the CampusEdge student loan. With CampusEdge you can get up to 000 per year as long as the loan total does not go beyond the estimated cost of attendance, less other financial aid. These funds are sent directly to you, and you can defer payment until graduation, with the option to make interest-only payments for up to two years following graduation. Principle and interest payments can be deferred for up to 7 years while registered in a participating school’s undergraduate program. Interest will accrue and will be added to your loan quarterly while in deferment and once at the start of repayment.

On Tuesday, March 31, the New America Foundation’s Education Policy Program hosted “The Future of Federal Student Loans” This event featured representatives from the Obama administration, the student loan community, and New America’s Education Policy Program to discuss the pros and cons of the President’s proposal to stop guaranteeing federal student loans and to instead make the loans directly. On Feb. 26, the Obama Administration laid out a bold plan to expand financial aid, paid for in part by ending the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program and instead contracting with companies to service loans. This proposal is controversial in the lending community, the higher education community, and on Capitol Hill.
Schools and School Districts don’t even have record of your Child’s Inter-Curriculum History. There isn’t even Field Trip Records which should be Kept by the School District.
@PurrGrrl damn strait.
Get rid of the middleman right?
We don’t need no stinkin’ middleman. Costs the American people too much unnecessary money.
Get rid of the middlemen. Corporations are the enemy of the people. Corporations that own farms, orchards, trucks, railroads, fertilizer companies, storage warehouses, processing facilities, pesticide companies, advertising companies, packaging companies, corporate retailers. These are all profit making enterprises that add to the cost of our food. We need to nationalize.
Anyone that cares about education in this country needs to look at a guy by the name Peter Schiff. Do a search on youtube. Currently our primary educational institutions reward the administrative staff and teacher’s unions and not the students. Our current system is failing our youth. Govt needs to get out of guaranteeing loans. Then the banks have to actually look at the ability of the individual to pay back the loan. It’s common sense. Don’t repeat the mortgage crisis.
How about getting the federal government out of the student loan business? Before student loans were the norm, tuition was affordable and students could work a part time job to pay the costs.
22:10 min it, I had to laugh. “They hoped it would reduce tuition”
How about get the federal government out of the student loan business?
I agree, Eliminate the loans, make it pell grants to those who are most qualified. Some competition is always good. Not everyone needs to go to college. I know 2 professional students who have 4 degrees each who will NEVER be hired by any good company worth working for because they have absolutly no common sense. These 2 have over 250k each in student loan debts, that they will never be able to pay for.
no. The IBR program is just another cost shifting program. If you don’t work in a field that qualifies for total forgivness at the end of 25 years, you then pay income tax on the balance, for some of us that amount due will be greater than what we started with. So instead of paying thru Dept of Ed, we pay thru the IRS.
No.. this is not a solution, it is just another avoidance of the real problem: That the student loan industry since the late 1970’s became predatory and exploits students.
Let’s just hope that the new income-based repayment (IBR) plan is the best thing ever to happen to managing student loan debt. If it’s not, then I won’t hesitate to renounce my U.S. citizenship and live and work in another country, I’m sure a foreign country would LOVE the education and expertise of a U.S.-educated Ph.D.
Student loan debt is the new terrorism
I was the son of a 100% disabled female Vietnam veteran when I graduated high school. I was “entitled” to chapter 35 benefits. Instead of the government practicing predatory giving, they practiced predatory lending and I racked up 30k for school. Its now at 53k and I’ve paid 13.5k . They tell me the benefits I should have gone to school with are not retroactive. If I cant hold them accountable, how can they hold me accountable? Its a modern slave trap.
I borrowed in total $30k for only 1 years worth of college. I left college after I learned of the evils of student loans and I’m completely pissed. Why the fuck did nobody tell me this during high school or even my financial aid advisers. Bunch of crooks screwing the American youth over. If you are poor and you wish to get higher education, you are screwed buddy.
I strongly believe that the governments and the lenders have an agenda..look at the amount of money is being handed out in loans freely. In the long term those who borrow will never repay their debt for a long long time. It’s true high percentage will be enslaved to the system.. Do your research before your apply .

Eliminate student loans entirely. Smaller, less wealthy European countries provide free education to their ppl. But in US poor students r denied the ability to better themselves–required to put themselves in debt in order to get an educ &they end up paying more money to go to college than their wealthier friends whose parents pay upfront ’cause loans must b paid back w/interest& fees.
Instead of best&brightest aspiring to prof’l positions, only the wealthiest can attain those positions.
If they really think an education is necessary then they need to make it affordable by funding the schools directly which would bring down the price of college for the individual. WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND GIVES A 17 YEAR OLD A $15,000 LOAN WITH NO CREDIT OR COLLATERAL? A GOVERNMENT WHO AIMS TO ENSLAVE A YOUNG WORK FORCE, THATS WHO!
Federal and Private student loans are a usury mechanism to enslave a young work force. These debts arise out of necessity not frivolous spending. If you get into trouble and can’t pay what happens? The interest rate sky rockets, the penalties compound, you lose the right to a tax refund, and ultimately you lose your rights to social security, medicare, and your rights as an American citizen. Do not fall into the trap.
