Students and parents who must deal with the high cost of a college education have available to them a wide range of student loans. This article offers details on three general types of student loans.
Federal Stafford Loans
Unlike other student loans, application for a specific Stafford Loan should be preceded by the filing of a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA application should be made in the name of the aspiring student.
The process of applying for a Stafford Loan differs in a second way from the application process for other student loans – and application for a Stafford Loan does not require a credit check.
There is no uniform method for the delivery of money from a Stafford Loan. Some students get the money directly from their school; other Loan recipients get the money from a bank or other lender.
Signature Student Loans
In order to get a Signature Loan, a student must attend a four year or two year school on at least a half time basis. That student must also meet certain credit criteria. Like some other student loans, application for the Signature Loan permits the use of a co-signer.
In fact, there is a real advantage to applying for a Signature Loan with a co-signer. That process can lead to a reduction in the interest on the loan. And, if after graduation, the student then makes 24 successive payments, the co-signer is removed from responsibility for covering the loan expenses.
If a students plans to go to a community college, then he or she ought to consider getting a Signature Loan. Unlike other student loans, the Signature Loan rewards student applicants who have a good credit rating. Those applicants can get a lower interest rate or a lower application fee.
Tuition Answer Loans
While the student loans discussed so far have all been Federal Loans, the Tuition Answer Loans involve the loaning of private money. Money from Tuition Answer Loans normally goes to credit-worthy parents or students. The providers of Tuition Answer Loans do not feel that every student at a U.S. college is entitled to such a loan.
So, in order to get a Tuition Answer Loan, both the borrower and the student must have a Social Security number. Both the borrower and the student must be U.S. citizens, or be permanent residents. And finally, both the borrower and the student must have good credit.
Other Private Loans
A student planning to pursue a particular career should study the Career Training Loans. Like the student loans discussed in the above section, Career Training Loans are private and credit-based loans.
They allow a student to get money for either classes at a trade school, or classes taken online. The school attended by the student must, however, have a license from the state in which it operates.
Students who want to go after training in cosmetology or massage therapy do not have to forgo the chance to get a student loan. For them Career Training Loans are perfect. Those loans can also help a student who wants to become an MRI technician.
They are the sort of student loans that are ideal for anyone who wants to study on the job.

Court Tuttle asked:
The FAFSA is the starting point of almost every kind of student financial aid in the United States. Ever wonder who is the largest provider of financial aid is? Well, it’s the federal government.
Every year, it gives out more than $70 billion in grants, loans and work-study awards to millions of students. No matter who you are, you simply have to complete the FAFSA, which stands for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.
You can find the FAFSA online, at high schools, at most libraries, or at a college financial aid office. It will list the deadline of June 30th, but our school’s deadline may be in early spring. You should get it in as soon as possible after January 1st.
You will need tax forms in order to fill out this form and if you or your parents have not completed them, you should estimate the information and make the corrections later. It is very important that you get the form in on time before the money is allocated.
Even if you’re applying to 12 schools, you need only complete one FAFSA. Make sure that you submit all required forms and paperwork requested. It’s best to beat the deadline if possible. Certain types of aid are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
Applying online is the fastest way to submit your form and get your results. You will need to request a PIN number from www.pin.ed.gov. Also, filing online can help you catch mistakes quickly and make the corrections. There are other need-to-know facts about FAFSA.
If you are a male, be sure that you have registered for Selective Service. If you’re over the age of 18, male and have not registered for Selective Service, your FAFSA will be rejected. Don’t lie on your FAFSA.
The government randomly flags a certain percentage of FAFSAs to verify. If they find out that you lied, you can lose your aid, and be charged with a federal crime. If your parents are divorced, the parent you lived with the most in the last tax year is the one whose income you will use.
Once you have submitted your FAFSA, it goes to the Central Processing System (CPS). The CPS uses the Federal Methodology to calculate your results and create your Student Aid Report (SAR).
This is then sent to you, your schools, and your state aid office. Keep a copy for your records. Regardless of the school, certain aid will be available to you as long as you qualify, such as: Pell Grants, Direct Loans, and Federal Family Education Loans.
