How Student Loans Work...EXPLAINED!

[@cantu7214]

@FBI

[@lo9804]

did he get away with it?

[@brawtff]

so basically he passed his debt on to his relatives?

[@donperrignon]

@@brawtff You don't inherit debt, unless you have an estate set up.

[@Avendale]

@@donperrignon - it all depends on the lender's policy concerning death-discharge.. direct-federal student loans are canceled if the borrower dies and the gov't discharges the debt.. however *private* student loan lenders don't always offer that same protection, so a borrower's relatives could still be on the hook for the remaining balance + interest/penalties even if the borrower has died.

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

A few helpful notes: 1.The url fafsa.com was recently acquired by the U.S. Department of Education, so hopefully in future it will not link students to a scam but to the actual FAFSA, 2. The online FAFSA is best for most people, but the paper FAFSA is best if the student's parents are undocumented immigrants (So, it's good that it still exists!), 3. The PLUS loan isn't necessarily better than private loans because of the high interest rate (currently 7.21%), BUT if parents are declined based on their credit, it increases the amount of Stafford loan a student can get ($4,000 more in Unsubsidized Stafford loan for freshmen), 4. Parents or students should start making payments on loan interest during college since they can currently claim up to $2,500 as a deduction on their income taxes for the next year (Just wanted to add some more info. that you probably didn't have time for!)

[@sweetyfri]

[@The1RosePhoenix]

I'd also add that some schools will give you more money if your parents apply for a PLUS loan and are denied. Granted, this will only be helpful to people whose parents will agree to do that (mine told me right before college that they would not apply for any parent loans or give me any money for school, so that kind of left me out of that benefit), but I know several people who got up to $10,000 more in aid per year from doing that, and that was all grants and scholarships, no loans.

[@jgwinnel]

You really should mention the fact that while you pay student loan interest the interest paid is a Tax Deduction. You will receive a 1098-E by mail or you'll be able to get the information online through the Loan Processor. So when you think about it, a longer repayment isn't a big deal when paying more over the term of the repayment for interest when you can take it off of your various 1040 forms at Tax Time. www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc456.html

Hey Mike, thanks for the upload. It was very informative. I have a question... Have you ever heard of anyone devoting the majority of their income after graduation to JUST paying loans? Not taking on a house or a car note? Do loans no allow you to do that? Do you have to pay monthly or can you just throw your paychecks at them until they vanish? Thanks

[@rubybeth]

+Youssef Martinez That's what my husband and I did... We avoided lifestyle inflation as much as possible after we got jobs, we just lived very cheaply after we finished school and paid extra on our student loans whenever we had extra money (usually monthly). We paid off about $50,000 in student loans in around 4 years. If you can live with family after graduating or pay low rent by having roommates, do it. If you can avoid getting a fancy car, and bike around instead, do it. Don't spend money on stuff you don't need, and pay that toward your loans. Even better, just do all of these things your whole life, saving as much money as you can--and then you can quit working whenever you like. Check out the Mr. Money Mustache blog for more on how this works.

I just finished taking care of loans and such before this video -_- I should mention that for my govt loans I had to fill out 2 things on the fafsa website. This might be new. One is a form. The other is a little informative program where you fill out answers, it guarantees to the govt that you understand your loans and the payment plans available to you.

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

shaylajacquelyn That's called the Master Promissory Note (MPN). Anyone who is awarded federal loans must sign an MPN before they are allowed to receive the funds. Basically, the FAFSA is your application for the loan, while the MPN is your way of accepting the loan once it's been offered.

[@brentkillian]

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

okay859 Probably the one with no debt. Prestige doesn't necessarily equal a better education. Lots of schools that aren't particularly well known can give you an excellent education as well as offer opportunities to make connections in your field and build up skills outside of the classroom. As long as you make the most of those opportunities during your time in school, you will be well set up for your future!

I really don't mind that some of them are US-centric, that's most of your audience, so it's completely understandable. But I remember a while ago there were a bunch in a row that were very US-centric, and it made me a little sad (I like getting advice from you guys! it's so awesome!). Again, this is something I noticed a while ago, I don't even remember when, so you may already be doing this, in which case: thanks! you are awesome.

Hey, Paula! Thanks so much for watching! This is something we took a certain amount of flak for early in the run of the show. Once we became aware of it, we worked hard to make close to all of our videos universal, if possible. I think this is something we've actually done well, and we are also hoping to have more international hosts in the next few months. If it seems like I'm being defensive or anything, please know that's not my intention. I just say all of this to illustrate that we are really trying to do the best for y'all, and although it's probably impossible to make all our vids international, I do wake up every morning thinking about how I can help as many of you awesome folks as possible. :] Keep remembering to be awesome! :D - Mike

[@chiquitapaulita]

How to Adult oh it doesn't seem like you're trying to be defensive at all. I actually hesitated a lot when writing that comment, because I wasn't sure this was an issue anymore. But I thought 'maybe this is not something they've been reminded of before' and decided to comment anyway (I think I need to read the comments here more often, I would have realized this had already been addressed if I had). I just always like feedback when I make/do things, and I like to give it too. Looking forward to those future vids :)

[@mausmalone]

One more really important term to know: forbearance! Forbearance just means restraining yourself from exercising a legal right, but *in this context* it's when a loan holder will restrain themselves from collecting payments on a loan that's already entered repayment. Say you're a year out from college. You've got a pretty basic job, you're making your payments and then BOOM downsized. You don't have the income to pay the bill, and going into bankruptcy (as mentioned) won't absolve the debt. But you *can* call your loan holder and explain to them what your financial situation is like and request forbearance. It's entirely at their own discretion but they might pause the repayment schedule while you get some income established. Interest will still accrue, so it's not like this is free. However, since your payment schedule is paused, you won't have 6 months' worth of payments building up while you search for a new job. True story: say your loan issuer sent everything to your parents who decided *not* to forward any mail and now they're asking for several thousand dollars from all those bills you never saw. (1) Try to get them to place the loan in forbearance. (2) Consolidate your loans to restart the clock. The penalty you pay is interest accrued on the lump sum and an extended payment calendar, but it'll keep you from trashing your personal finances in the meantime.

He wants to go to a community college over a 2 year spell and take the basic 10 classes to prepare for at least 1 associates degree in biology. He also wants to take some basic construction and business classes specializing in landscaping and design. He is a unique kid. He hangs with trustees of a local botanical gardens and works there in the summer months. These men and women are influencing him as he works for them too in business ideas. Most of them are older people that are loaded. They are taking him under their wing. One dude is worth around 20 million dollars. He is teaching my kid a bit about $$$. I think he will learn more about how to do business from these folks more than even the schools can do it.

If I have an outstanding payment at university I previously attended and I go to community college now, can I apply for a student loan?

[@noahthompson691]

I need help, what’s the point of a student loan if you have to pay the college back anyways after you graduate? Why would I want a loan that would just build up interest? Just don’t get the point of them

Loan forgiveness (due to death) doesn't apply to all private lenders (they would go after cosigners, and then family maybe?). I assumed that the Parent PLUS loan also wouldn't be forgiven given that your parent took it out in their name, but the Student Aid website* makes it somewhat ambiguous. It says "the loan may be discharged if the child for whom you borrowed dies, or if you die or become totally and permanently disabled" - but this specific sentence wasn't included in their list of things that would allow for a discharge of the loan, for some reason it was included above it. Also that use of "*may* be discharged" makes it seem that sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. As a student that worries a lot about what would happen to the money I owed if I died (either by natural causes or myself), finding out that the Parent PLUS loan might fall onto my parents is a really scary thought. *Link: studentaid.ed.gov/sa/repay-loans/forgiveness-cancellation#im-a-parent

[@binabutternborajelly]

so my school is offering me $41,000 which cuts my cost down to $13,000 per year and I am terrified because my family is not showing any sign of wanting to pay.they said community but the community college does not have my major. i am trying to apply for last minute scholarships (it being late May and all) and i am trying to consider whether or not student loans are worth it and where to look. if anyone can please help me that would be great bc i am having breakdowns from the panic and worry my family is causing me.

[@leoking938]

Hey guys, quick question: Can I use a student loan for buying a car instead of the normal tuition? What type of loan is best for this situation? Note that I have not filled the fafsa ever.

[@brentkillian]

leoking938 you could but it is a bad idea student loans are not bankruptable.

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

leoking938 I'm not sure about private loans, but for a federal student loan that would be illegal. You can only use the funds toward qualified educational expenses.

[@leoking938]

I'm not planning on buying a new car, I'm looking for something cheap, like 5k. I herd that some people have used them for trips and stuff, so I don't see why transportation would be a problem. That's why I ask, are loans limited to only tuition? Private and government ones?

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

leoking938 You can use them to pay for things other than tuition, but it still must count as an educational expense. For example, room and board, books, supplies for classes, etc. Transportation CAN be a qualified educational expense, but that generally means something like the cost of flying to an out-of-state college, or the cost of gas to drive to and from school. You can also use them to pay for study abroad, so when you say "trips," that may have been what it was. Also, people illegally use student loan funds to pay for non-educational expenses all the time. It is still illegal, and if they get caught they will not only be in trouble, they will be required to return the money to the government immediately. Private loans may have looser terms, but it will still depend on the terms dictated by the organization giving the loans. You would need to speak to the lender to find out what they consider a qualified educational expense.

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

leoking938 Another reason why it wouldn't really be feasible to buy a car with student loan funds (even a fairly inexpensive car) is that the funds are sent to the college, not to you. The college will apply the funds to your account -- meaning, any charges on your account will be subtracted from the total -- and you are only allowed to withdraw whatever is leftover for additional expenses like books and supplies.

[@balletbabs8777]

I took out my first private loan a few weeks ago for 26k, which is enough for one year. I just got a notice, though, that the school is only accepting 17k of my 26k loan. The 17k won't even cover my basic education and I have no way of getting the other 9k. What do I do?

[@brentkillian]

You should avoid student loan debt as much as possible. You cannot get rid of it till you pay it off.

[@Bekkibailey]

Wow. I thought Student Finance England was a pain in the ass! Glad I'm not American!

[@chibicurmudgeon]

Rebecca Bailey "Glad I'm not American" is a phrase that can be used in so very many situations. Signed, An American with thousands in medical debt and 6 fucking figures in student loan debt. :(

[@milissamackey7231]

+Rebecca Bailey Yeah. It's a pretty big freaking scam. And we have to get involved in it if we want higher education. We've got some issues.

[@milissamackey7231]

+chibicurmudgeon Liked for sympathy, not because I think it's cool you're slammed with such debt.

[@imherebecause...657]

+Milissa Mackey Just starting this semester with the university, i hate the classes, courses are difficult. I have a associate degree already. I would like to get another associate degree. Courses at community colleges to me, aren't as hard. I took all the GER (general education requirements) already so all id have to focus on is electives & wat id b doing n the real world. I have one associate degree in CIS (not IT,programming etc; it's office software) and want another associate in graphic design or a help desk degree. Getting the graphic design degree requires on-campus attendance and the help desk degree is offered online. I'll need to have a job to pay my rent, food, gas, cell phone etc. so the on-campus degree would b more difficult to do. also, i live with parents w/ not job but want an apartment n will search 4 a job. can i add to my fafsa living off campus w/o parents? I'm already receiving Aid: pell grants and student loans for 2015-2016. can i drop all or a few of my courses(which r the difficult ones) and transfer to a community college starting in spring 2016? Will i owe money for the courses i dropped or lol idk? Living with parents, want to move into an apartment in another city where more job opportunities are, i don't have a job yet. Will I get enough financial aid to cover college tuition, fees, books and apartment?

[@melaniewhite292]

+Drawing..Those are all really specific questions that are best to ask to the financial aid dept. at your college. Each college has certain times that you can drop without a charge and after that you might be able to get a percentage back depending on how far into the classes you are. Also find out what resources your college has to help you with the classes you are having difficulty with. Talk to the other students in the class and see if they are struggling too. I was once in an Algebra class and most of the class couldn't follow the teacher 70% or so of the class dropped. I retook the same class with a different teacher and everything made since. Talk to financial aid and maybe to a career counselor (many colleges have them at no charge) to figure out the best way to get your plan back on track. Good Luck!

[@PogieJoe]

Very timely for me unfortunately. ;P Also yay for the charity donation! That's pretty cool of you!

[@mlaidukaitis]

For those wondering, a 529 College Savings account is AWESOME and works like a Roth IRA. Any money you put into it you've already paid taxes on, but you're given a few ways to invest your money and any interest you earn during that time period grows tax-free as long as you use it on qualified college expenses (this includes tuition, room & board, books, and even a computer/laptop, but NOT travel/transportation/a car). You can open a 529 account for yourself or a relative of yours, and if that person doesn't use all the funds, you can transfer the account to be in the name of someone else as long as they are related to the original person the account was opened for (so you could open an account for your child, and if they don't go to college you can transfer the account to their spouse, their child, their sibling, or even yourself, plus many other options!). If you open the account, you control it, so no need to fear your child will blow the money on non-college expenses. If you do withdraw the money for non-college expenses, you pay a 10% penalty on any INTEREST you've earned (not on any contributions you've made, yay!). Finally, depending on what state you open your 529 account with, you might get a tax deduction on any contributions you make into your 529 account up to a certain amount each year, so do your research! (Most states have a 529 plan, but you don't have to open your 529 account through your own state, so do some comparing!) Feel free to ask questions, as I worked as a 529 specialist at Fidelity Investments and I know a lot about these accounts and I'm shocked as to how little is known about this awesome resource!

[@Neha71580]

Hey Mike! Thanks for this video. As an International student, I pay almost double the fees so... BUT my problem (you don't have to read it, really, it's too different..) is that my uncle is paying a large part of my undergraduate fees, and he's also keeping me in his house with his family...which I feel very burdened about. He says that I can pay him later after I complete my studies and get a decent job, and if I go with the student loans options he would think I'm insulting him and his money. I don't know, I just feel very burdened about it and I would highly prefer to get student loan instead of taking it from your relatives, cuz I feel like a burden on people I care about :(.

[@PinkGrapefruit22]

Neha Kapoor I would recommend that, if he wants you to pay it back later, you set up some sort of formal agreement with him in writing, just as if it were a loan. Specify when you are expected to pay it back, whether or not he will charge interest, at what rate, whether there are circumstances in which you are not expected to pay it back, etc. That will protect both of you (as well as your relationship) from future misunderstandings about what this means.

[@Neha71580]

Thanks for this video! Even though I've been paying off my student loans for about a year now, this video really helped clear things up and reassure me that I am in fact on the right path (yesss tiny adulthood wins). One thing I would add in terms of loan forgiveness is to develop a plan early - research forgiveness options before you start repaying your loans so you can calculate approximate monthly payments and put a good plan in place ahead of time. Student loans can be really overwhelming and mostly make me cry a lil bit, but you did a really great job explaining all of the things in a way that's super duper informative and funny (I laughed at student loans, which is a thing I never thought would happen and it was glorious). Thanks for being awesome!! :)

Hearing about the Trevor Project made me kind of sad. If such a thing is needed on Earth still, then we're still a long while from where we need to be. Until then, I'm happy it exists. And to the main content: I looked it up, and student loans are apparently not mandatory in my country. So why anyone would need them, I haven't the foggiest. Also, if you go to college or schools for adults, the government of Denmark actually GIVES YOU MONEY for wanting to become more educated. I live in a great place. ~ TDG
