Hi my daughter is attending college fall of 2023. We were thinking of taking a parent plus loan through the feds, but its at 8.05% plus origination fee. Private I can get under 5% to me it seems like a no brainer to go private. Friends of mine say go Federal just in case the government ends up paying it? To be honest Im not holding my breath on that happening. I would like to hear your thoughts. Ty
Huge fan! Met you last fall at JTHS. Have a rising college freshman and rising senior. Your college loan videos have been very helpful. Thank you! Question though: you name your top five, but should you apply to a couple simultaneously or wait to see how it goes. As a teacher I received something from the NEA/College Ave. partnership. And something similar from Sallie Mae. I was just going to apply for PLUS until I saw your videos. Just not sure how to organize myself, so to speak.
