STORY: Back to School: How to Use Personal Loans to Help Pay
Down Student Loan Debt
Hi Folks, We're looking to file an advice story for college
students and families looking for help in covering college costs
at school and in paying down student loans with personal loans
after a student leaves school.
Specifically, we'd like these questions answered.
1. Do personal loans have a role to play in covering college
tuition and room and board? In what scenarios would personal
loans help?
2. If personal loans are a bad idea in the student loan realm,
why would that be? (i.e, "cons" of using personal loans to cover
college costs.)
3. Do personal loans have a role in students repaying their
student loan debts once they're out of school? When might they
help? (i.e., debt consolidation, buying time until a first job
comes along, etc.)
4. What, in your opinion, are the best ways for college grads to
repay student loan debt? What are the best strategies/tools and
why?
Thanks in advance.
Requirements:
Requirements = student loan experts, personal loan experts,
lending experts, actual college grads who are paying of debt,
money management experts, consumer advocates
