Loan for school? (help)

Hey guys, I need help ahah! i don't know squat about loans and i don't want to just jump into one without knowing shiet!

I'm going to apply for financial aid, and scholarships etc. but I think towards the end I will need to take out a loan.

All this is for California Design College, it's friggin way to expensive and I can't afford it.

But, I come to you guys for help and more information because I don't want to get stuck with a giant debt after I graduate, and lets think of the worse can scenario... I don't do as good as I planned, and I don't land a great job, so what do I do? How crazy will the payments be etc. I know they give you 6 months after you graduate so hopefully that will help, but damn.. it's really expensive

So if anyone can shed some light on my problem thanks! I need to know by this Wednesday, because thats my deadline.

Also, anyone know if the California Design College is actually good and worth it? I had an interview with them, and it seems good, and it really got me interested.

Anyone know anyone that graduated from there or anything?

Thanks again guys!

sell your body on ebay!

Student loans usually have very low rates. None of your friends have student loans? I dont personally have one so I can't really help you out.

Bro, Check workopolis or any network to find out whether the course is indemand or not. If Yes then go for it. I did the same thing and I paid out my loan in my first 6 months of working. Trust me skoooling is all worth it. I now drive my 6mt happily ever after.

student loans have really low rates and some have 0 interest until you graduate. then you have a grace period to consolodate and then you'll start acruing interest.
you should also look into grants, which is basically free money that you don't have to pay back.

Try to apply for a Sally May School loan but try to get it deffered. That way you can go to school and pay afterwards. Also check for government grants.

worst advise in the world, sallie mae is the worst company to get a loan thru, althoguh u will prob get a loan thru them, but its not worth it,

there customer service sucks, and they try to **** you up the *** 24/7, they are a huge rip off, i would try a dif company man, and search for assistance online, just google it

i personaly have a loan thru sallie mae and some of my friemnds, we are doing anything to get away from this horrible company

i have ask them numorous amount of time to do thing and they nvr do it, just a huge company that doesnt care abt there customers
