Student loans - be sure you're not getting more than you bargained for

[tensai]

I just read this article on the LA Times where students got loans but didn't know till after they graduated what the total cost would be, and that the majority of their lone was against very high commercial interest rates.

Very crafty stuff going on by a some of the big loan institutions. People posing as school loan advisors, sending in the final details of the loan only when classes started etc etc.

Have a read, inform yourself.
