Filed under: Student Loans
It’s bad enough that many students end up with a horrendous amount of repayments to make upon their graduation from their schooling. Then on top of this debt they have the interest that goes with it. There is finally some help on the horizon in this regard.
It has been determined that the three student loans that are operated by the government will experience a drop in their student loan interest rate by half a percentage point. Many students who had to borrow to assist them with the payments for their undergraduate studies ended up with a 4.29% interest rate where as starting next year this will drop to 3.76%. For the graduate students they will now experience a reduction, as well as, parents who took out loans to assist with the payments for their children’s’ schooling.
While this is all good news, there are stipulations of the interest rate drop that will depend on the type of federal loan that they are utilizing, in addition to, the amount of the overall debt and the repayment period. There is also no guarantee that these rates will not go up again.
Many students find themselves in dire situations all because of their student debt load. These individuals should seek out the advice of a qualified student loan debt attorney who can advise them as to their rights according to their specific needs, and what options may be available to them as potential solutions to get out from under this type of debt load.
