Loans

贷款不同于助学金和勤工俭学,因为钱只是借来的, meaning you'll need to pay it back. It's important that you only borrow what you need, 因为学生贷款和其他贷款一样,都是要带着利息偿还的. 在接受贷款之前做大量的研究是至关重要的,这样你就能明白你同意的是什么.

Student loans at BSU, 通常来自三个来源之一:联邦政府, 马萨诸塞州联邦和私人机构, such as banks or lenders. 联邦和州贷款通常比私人贷款有更多的好处,而且往往更灵活. And in some cases, based on your employment or line of work, your federal loans may be forgiven entirely. 联邦和州贷款通常提供的一些好处包括:

  • 较低的固定利率或根本没有利息(在马萨诸塞州无息贷款的情况下)
  • Customized repayment plans
  • Adjusting loan payments based on income
  • Deducting student loan interest from your taxes

Responsible Borrowing

College is an important step for many, 有很多选择可以帮助你支付费用, but grants, work-study programs, 而且/或奖学金可能不足以支付费用. This is where student loans come in. Getting a loan is a big decision, as you could be paying it back for a decade or more, 所以做足调查,只接受你需要的是很重要的, since you'll need to pay that money back, often with interest, once you graduate.

如果你正在借钱,这里有两个建议要记住:

  • 你需要的数量通常取决于你所处的位置. 位于马萨诸塞州的州立学校和社区学院对该州居民来说通常费用较低.
  • 了解一下自己毕业后能挣多少钱. 根据你选择的领域或职业,起薪差别很大, 因此,值得考虑的是,你的贷款将在多大程度上影响你未来的财务状况. 一旦你毕业,你的贷款应该只占你工资的一小部分.

Once you've decided how much you'll need to borrow, 你需要签一份本票:偿还贷款的协议. 你保存一份这份文件的副本以作记录是很重要的. Once it's time to begin paying back your loans, 你会想要与你的贷款服务商保持联系,这样你就知道如何付款. 大多数贷款人提供多种选择来偿还贷款, and should have a way to contact them either online, by phone, 如果您需要进一步的帮助或有任何问题,也可以通过电子邮件发送.
