How you can save up to 10% on the cost of college

When talking about the cost of college, a penny saved is a penny earned plus ten or fifteen years of interest. That's why reducing your costs, borrowing less, and budgeting wisely can save you more than you think. Here's where to start:

Compare your private student loan options

Not all private student loans are created equal. Compare them side-by-side and find the cheapest one for you. But look beyond the interest rate. Consider the borrowing terms and the benefits of each loan when evaluating total cost.

Know how much to borrow

One of the most expensive mistakes you can make is borrowing too much. The key? Budget before you borrow. Include things like textbooks and living expense. Don't include things like your car payment or a vacation.

Buy cheaper textbooks

Our Textbook Comparison Center can save you up to 90% on the textbooks you need. Consider it your weapon in the fight against bookstore prices.

Qualify for more financial aid

Our TuitionCoach can help you qualify for more financial aid by coaching you and your family how to better demonstrate your financial need on paper.

Tip of the week

If you stacked $100 bills until you reached that amount, your pile would be 678 miles high.
