sigcyril asked:
I have about $120K in student loans right now that I am paying off. I paid about $7500 in interest in 2006 on those loans. My loan provider sends me a form stating this for tax purposes. Is it tax deductible?

RameelRaymundo asked:
I need to buy a new car, but I’m also planning on going to law school in Sep of 09. I’m planning on buying a modest entry level car for around 17-19km and planning to put 5000 down. However, when I go to school I wont be working and will still have payments. My question is, are there student loans available that could include the cost of paying off the remaining balance of the car at the time?

guitinit asked:
I want to do a full-time MBA, but I need more money than the $6000 stipend offered. I presently get $10,500 in government loans. Will this amount go up or down if I pursue an MBA right out of college?
I will have all tuition paid for.

Alex asked:
I just transferred undergraduate schools and still have some student loans from my previous school (Sallie Mae and Federal Direct loans). Is there some sort of clearing house that my new enrollment status will be sent to so that the loan agencies know that I haven’t just stopped going to school (and thus cause my loan payments to become due)? Or must I obtain enrollment verification from my current school and send it to each loan agency myself?

bbrrpf asked:
I have $100,000 in private student loans from two lenders. The interest rate is over 10%. Is there a way to get another loan to pay this off at a lower interest rate? What kind of debt consolidation program should I consult? Most student loan companies only deal with Federal loans it seems. I keep seeing ads for mortgage loans with low monthly payments– is there something similar I could get for a personal loan? THANKS!

Brulia asked:
I am in the process of looking for a private student loan to help cover the cost of living and being a student. I’m probably going to apply for an Astrive Student Loan. Are there any other good companies where you don’t need tons of credit? Or do you know anything about the Astrive loans? Thanks.

quake1920 asked:
I just completed graduate school a few months ago and I consolidated my student loans from undergrad and grad school and it is time to start repayment on my student loans. How many times can you defer your student loans..I consolidated them with the extended payment plan which is 30 years?

KristenM asked:
I have undergrad student loans from one bank that I consolidated, and then graduate student loans from another bank. I am graduating in August and at that point I would like to have them all consolidated so I am not paying 3 different people each month.

AG asked:
I know that student loan interest can be deducted.
My student loans are all either in deferment or forbearance. I’m accruing interest on some of them, but I haven’t actually paid any interest yet. Can I deduct the interest that accrued?
Thanks!
