Which loans will be best to obtain for college?

I, as other students, struggle financially. When looking into college, cost is a large concern and I know I will have to take out loans. Considering I must go through college for extra time to gain a pH D in law, as I want, I will have a lot of debt. I am the first in my family to graduate high school and go to college so I cannot ask anyone else about loans. #soontobebrokecollegestudents #scholarship #financial-aid

Start with government loans that you will get through Fasfa. They have great payment plans and offer forgiveness in certain situations.

Nicole’s Answer

Federal Loans are definitely the way to go. Have you decided on a school? If not, definitely compare the pricing of private vs. public and factor in any scholarships. Depending on your parents' financials, a Parent PLUS Loan may also be an option. Since you are a first generation college student, you may have more scholarship/aid opportunities open to you. I would also recommend speaking to a Guidance Counselor at your school to see what advice they have specific to California. You could also potentially look into loans from sources like Discover and any bank where you have any type of account.
