I would suggest staying in school as long as possible so you don't have to pay them back right away. I'm pushing 7 years now at the univ of iowa.

Being in school doesn't help. I'm class of '05 too, but I'm in business school now. In the process of trying to buy an apartment, found a sweet place I was kinda pumped about, and the board of the building just rejected me because of the B-school loans. So pissed...Suck big fat *** indeed...

Yeah they kill you with credit requirements when you transfer, epecially if you wanna switch majors...
And they said business school loans were a "smart investment".... Anyway, the best solution is just to party as much as possible... |

yeah, at our age with a good score in the 700's it's tough to build up more because the biggest thing they wanna see is a longer history, not much we can do about that...
you can also take out a big loan for 80% of the value, plus a "piggyback" for the other 20%. Your rate will be higher on the small loan, but you're more likely to get approved, and you can pay it off first. I work in finance, so if you wanna bounce ideas off each other, send me a PM How did the convo get so serious? Banana Rasta wants to remind us that this is a spring break forum...

Lol yea we do i'm sure we could have a crazy time. I go out that way once in awhile. Where you originally from? Thats the way I look at it, I don't even wanna think about repaying student loans so I just stay in school. Went 3 years at a community college and didnt graduate, then came out here to Univ of Iowa, went to school 3 years and got kicked out for grades 1 year. So lets see i'm a 6th or 7th year senior and won't graduate till december.
