Student Loans
When fellowships, assistantships and scholarships aren’t enough to pay for school, it may be time to consider low-cost student loans. Even if you’re working your way through graduate school, these federal and private loan programs could help make school financing easier and more affordable.

Federal
Stafford Loans
A Federal Stafford Loan is one of the smartest ways to pay for college. Graduate students can borrow up to $20,500 in unsubsidized and subsidized Stafford loans. There are no collateral or credit checks required, so you don’t need to worry about income requirements or finding a co-signer. And repayment is deferred until you’ve left school or dropped below half-time enrollment.

Consolidation
Loans
Consolidate one or more of your student loans into a single loan with one monthly payment, and you could cut your student loan payments nearly in half. There are no fees, no prepayment penalties, and no reasons to pass up this great deal.
