Private Loans vs. Federal Loans. What are the pros and cons?

From what I can understand there are many types of loans for undergraduate or graduate school. Can anyone explain why I should choose a federal loan over a private loan or vice versa? #college #finance #financial-services #student-loans #federal-government #fafsa

If my current career plan to be a biomechanical engineer is not a good fit, what area should I consider since I am interested in engineering and technology?

I plan to develop/improve medical devices as part of my career, but I know that people can realize it isn't a good fit when they go to college. I am a strong student in math and science, and really like technology, so is there another field that would be another option? #engineering #technology

Is there any difference between a university and a college?

I never knew the answer to this question. However, if there is a difference, I think a university would just mean having a bigger population and a college would be smaller? In other words, a university will obviously have more students and a college will have less. This is just something that...
