Mandy’s Answer

Start by filling out the FASFA. Then talk to a financial advisor at a college you are interested in attending. Obtain scholarships, see if a work study is possible with the college you are applying and research student loans for the remainder. Take out as few loans as possible becuase they are debt and have to be paid back once you graduate.

Great Question Andrew! If you have any loans remaining after you end college, your loan servicer (either government loans or private loans) will be able to work with you to come up with a potential payment plan for repayment. They will look at things like current income, monthly expenses, etc to determine with you what is affordable every month to repay back on a plan.
