That's true, but knowing where I'm at with my credit report I don't see myself getting approved for anything that is based on my credit scorealwayssunnyinfl wrote:You never know unless you apply. I'm considering applying for one of these without a cosigner. I highly doubt I'll get it, but I would hate myself for not at least trying to save ~$5000 in origination fees and then oodles more in interest.JayJones78 wrote:I think that many people (like melhanvt13 wrote:sweet keep us updatedPresidentjlh wrote:I'm going to go talk with a banker at Wells Fargo with my parents. I'll let you guys know if I find anything out.) will just never get approved for a private bank based student loan. I can't see a situation where I'll get one. I am not saying they are wrong to do so but in this financial climate to get approved for a loan product of any kind is a very hard thing (this will prob apply more to older students who are completely independent from their parents) which is why grad plus is still the best (and only) option for many of us

I talked with a guy, he had no clue about anything with student loans (1% interest common? Really)
We'll talk to their student loan area on Monday.

so, everyone posting on here regularly has already been accepted to WUSTL? I'm one of the unfortunate (and increasingly more uncomfortable) hopefuls for news of admission... anyone else? If ASW is next week... maybe I'll know soon.

Would taking a private loan instead of grad plus interfere with lrap programs or income based repayment plans?Presidentjlh wrote:Yep. That's why my biggest goal is to avoid those things the best I can.wannabelawstudent wrote:Everyone forgets the Grad Plus loan also has a 4% one time charge as well....
Stafford I can deal with. Grad Plus...not so much.
If I can get the Grad Plus eliminated or replaced with a better loan, that would be huge.
