It's tough beginning to pay back student loans because the money isn't the best right now, but will be later hopefully.

If you haven't consolidated your loans already then do so before July 1 as interest rates will be going up.  Plan at least 6 weeks to make that happen.\n\nThere are a number of pay back options including ones that are weighted to be smaller early in the payback period with larger payments later.  You can also extend payments for 30 years or select a program that is income dependent.\n\nYou could consider working in a State underserved area or for the federal government or sometimes there are even private arrangements.  Try the 3R Network.  You could also consider the IHS or NHS.  I have heard some horror stories associated with both of those last two organizations, however.  I would be sure that you really wanted to practice some place before I accepted one of their assignments.  My sister found a place that reimbursed her for her loans in exchange for a five year committement, meanwhile she is earning nice bonuses with the practice she works for.  Good luck.

Providing you havenet used it yet, student loans come wiht what is called a forbearnce. Its used in times of hardship. YOu need to call your loan provider and see if you can apply for them. You may not be able to now that you've defaulted but its worth a try. the forbearnce will bring you current, and maek it so you only have to pay the intrest on you loan. I had to use it.

it is hard. sometimes it seems like you'll never get ahead.\nI'm married with a child, we don't get any aid and we have tried hard to stay debt free, it isn't easy!\nthere is always a way though, and someday you'll be able to tell your kids how hard it was in the old days:)\n\nthere are more people to support, that's the only reason they get more money.

Sometimes student loan payments may be deferred for 12 months or more.   I don't know if it continues to accrue interest during that time, but at least the payments are postponed until you can get your feet on the ground.  \n\nAre your students loans through Sallie Mae?? They have a website that can help you or call them directly.  www.salliemae.com \n\nIt is not their responsibility to find you a job.  There are plenty of resources to help you do that on your own.

Save enough to pay off the school is your first step, then use Americorp to help pay your current tuition (interest rates on student loans are higher now than a few year years ago).  You may also think about "consolidating" your Stafford loan to get a fixed rate before June 30, 2006.

Life is long, you'll have time to eventually pay them back. Don't worry about it now. Wait until you land a new job, then you could take them out to dinner or whatever. Be patient.

My husband and I have borrowed money from both of our parents at one time or another.  When we borrow, there is always a reason (laid off, kids are sick and need meds, ect.) and we always get it paid back as soon as possible.

You might have to take out a very low interest college loan that you start to pay back after you graduate. Good luck.

Go back to school.  Grants are available and loans can be deferred until you can afford to pay them back.\n\nInvest in your education.

Yes, but sue them for the repayment first.

No, but after attending most universities, you will have a long course of debt repayment.

Your best bet is to call your lender and work out a deal. When someone defaults everyone loses - the borrower, the lender and the taxpayers. It's in everyone's interest for your to start paying before they start garnishing your wages.\n\nYour lender has dealt with this kind of situation before and will have a process in place to help you.

try to consolidate your loans and set up payment arrangements that can fit your budget ...or try to find some federal programs that will either reduce or total eliminate your debt by partcipating in them and possibly getting a good job while doing so
