I’m a college student looking for a small college loan to help with expenses. What are the websites, places to go, and information on getting the best rate ect…. Can I use the money to pay off a credit card with a high interest rate? Where do you go to get College Loans? The bank? Do you have to payments while your in college? What can I spend the money on? I’ve never taken out a loan. Thank you for the help.

The best place to go first is your schools financial aid office and FAFSA.com They can direct you to different places that will offer you a loan. Rates are pretty consistant because the goverment helps control them. You can get Student Loans from just about any bank in addition to organizations that just make student loans, such as Sally Mae.

Your first stop should be your Financial Aide office though.
