Private Educational Loans for College?

วันพุธที่ 22 เมษายน พ.ศ. 2552
I'm applying to graduate programs in film production for 2009. These programs tend to be very expensive, for instance, a two- or three-year program in cinematography or directing can run from $100,000 to $130,000 for everything (tuition, fees, and room and board) during those two or three years.

The less expensive programs ($30,000 to $75,000) will teach you how to use the equipment but not how to tell a story through the visual medium. They can be compared to a writing program that teaches someone how to type and then considers them a writer.

Since getting work after graduation depends largely on the networks developed with your classmates and professors, it's critical to go to the best school/program possible.

Federal financial aid only covers $20,000 per year...what else can I do to cover the cost of tuition and expenses other than get private educational loans? I know that they have much higher interest rates than federal loans and they tend to be variable (based on LIBOR) too.


My advise to you is not borrow more over the course of your college career, more than you would expect to earn your first year upon graduating. If cinematographers earn 50,000 starting out after college, and you borrow no more than this amount, you will be okay and be able to afford the payments.

If you have borrowed 150,000 for a 50K a year job, then you have a problem. You also will want to be assured you will be able to find a job in this field after graduation, so check the newspapers for the town you will be living in to see if they are available and what the salaries are.

DONT go into debt! You will regret it!

You can learn the information you are missing you your own. You can still network.

Anyways, sallie mae is a private lender. Get a co signer or you will have really high interest rates.You can also contact the school Financial Aid dept. They may work with or know about other private lenders and be able to give you more options.

Good Luck
