How Not To Pay For College

Many people have probably given you advice about how to raise the necessary money for college, but how many people have told you how not to pay for college?

One of the biggest mistakes that students make is to bump up their private student loan applications just in case they need a bit of extra money and that extra few hundred dollars which are typically added to each loan application can quickly mount up and tip you over the balance and into a situation where your debts are greater than your ability to pay them. You may well need to borrow money to fund yourself through college but never borrow more than you absolutely need to.
