Few students can afford to pay for college without some form of education financing.
Graduate and professional students borrow even more. Grants, scholarships, work-study, and other forms of gift aid just do not cover the full cost of tuition, fees, room and board. Many students find that they must supplement their savings with government and private loans. The William D. Ford Direct Loan Program offers low interest rates and flexible repayment plans which tend to be an attractive way to finance your education.
