Federal vs. Private Loans: What You Need to Know
When taking out student loans, it’s critical to understand your options:
1️⃣ Federal Student Loans
✔ Direct Federal Loans (Stafford Loans)—Borrowed in the student’s name, often a better option than private loans.
✔ Subsidized Loans—Needs-based, no interest while in school.
✔ Unsubsidized Loans—Not needs-based, but interest accrues during school.
✔ PLUS Loans—Borrowed by parents, with different repayment terms.

2️⃣ Private Student Loans
✔ Typically offered by banks & private lenders
✔ Often require a cosigner
✔ Interest rates vary based on credit history
✔ Less flexible repayment options than federal loans
