Financial Aid
1. Financial Aid: I found this was a great tool for me because I found out there are different funding options that are available to me, including scholarships, state grants, and employer programs. I like how she said that different students come from different backgrounds, with different financial needs. I like how it told me what financial aid is, and where it comes from. And last about the two different types of loans, subsidized and unsubsidized loans. * Subsidized loans are for students with financial needs, and no interest paid while in school. * Unsubsidized loans are not based on financial needs, and interest starts to accrue while you are in school. 2. Library: is a good tool for me, because it’s a great resource when I need to get information on certain things. From navigating the easy to use research data base, and there are also helpful tools and books that I can use. 3. Assignments: this is helpful to me because it shows me how to submit my assignments once I have them completed, and it shows me how easy it is to find your assignments once e you log in to your college, and it shows me how I can track my progress, and the grade I received. 4. Discussion: this is good because it shows the different types of discussion forums there are that I can use, and it’s a way I can communicate with my instructor and classmates. 5. Classroom: this is where I will learn how to use the course syllabus, learning objectives, materials and assignments that I need for each course, and it explains which page I will be using the most off for my assignments. 6. Introduction: this is how I can manage my assignments, and explore the main page, and it’s also another great way to interact with my

    Delisle discusses how $650 billion of $845 billion in student loans are Federal loans. Unsubsidized Stafford loans have a 6.8 percent fixed interest rate, but are the most widely available loan. A temporary reduction on the interest rate of this loan expires this year, leaving many people puzzled. The federal government is making money off of student loans as it is charging students a higher interest rate on the loan for the student than the federal government is being charged to borrow. The article further discusses the history of the federal student loan interest rates and how the interest rate continues to increase causing House Democrats to say “Congressional Republicans… have allowed student loan interest rates to increase, making student loans harder to repay.” That being said, the federal government does offer loans at a lower interest rate than could be found elsewhere, especially on the private market. While many students may have difficult repaying their college loan debt, other students may find the loans affordable.…

    For many, student loans are the only way to finance one’s education. Paying out of pocket simply isn’t a reality for most, so they rely on state and national government to provide them the funds to attend school, buy textbooks, and even pay for room and board. Sign on the dotted line, and suddenly a subsidized or unsubsidized loan shows up as a credit on your student account. Any overage is paid to you by check to cover incidentals. This process gets repeated every semester, for as long as you attend school. It all seems very easy and acceptable - until you graduate (or don’t graduate, whichever the case may be). The day you leave school, a six-month clock starts ticking toward your first payment. Oh wait, you mean school costs money?…

    Robin Wilson states that students who get student loans, go to college, and graduate are better off than the ones who don’t go to college at all. Especially the ones who end up with high paying jobs. In her article “A lifetime of Student Debt? Not Likely.” She talks about students who attend college and take out student loans. A great student can be one that ends up in the most debt, and a not so great student could be one that doesn’t have to pay back as much. It all depends on how wise you are with money. Wilson talks about how students take out more than they need, they spend the money on unnecessary things such as clothes or video games, these students will be the ones that will spend the rest of their lives paying back their loans. About eight percent of american students borrow at least double the national average, these students are borrowing more than they need. Some students choose defer their student loan payments, one of the major problems with this is the interest rates will go up, therefore, putting the student farther and farther into debt.…
