Student Aid
Types of Aid Most financial aid falls under 2 main categories: Gift aid: Grantsandscholarshipsthatyoudontneedtorepay. Self-help aid: Loans that you will repay after graduation and funds you can earn through student employment. Scholarships Scholarships are given in recognition of what you've accomplished through academic study, musical talent, service projects, and more.
Grants Grants are a type of gift aid typically awarded based on your financial need.
Loans Student loan programs let you borrow money to help pay for your education. Repayment of most educational loans begins after you graduate. Because loans must be repaid, you should plan your borrowing carefully. Student Employment Bethel's work-study program helps you pay for college expenses by working part time on campus or in an off-campus community service position. Military Benefits Veterans and their dependents, or students currently serving in the military, may be eligible for additional benefits from military programs.

Student Loans
Loans Most students take out loans to help fund a portion of their college expenses. Loans must be repaid, so be sure to plan your finances carefully and borrow only what you can afford to repay. Take a look through the common types of education loans available. Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans Also known as Direct Stafford Loans, Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans are offered by the U.S. Department of Education rather than a bank. If you qualify for a subsidized loan, the government will paytheinterestwhileyoureinschoolbutyouareresponsiblefortheaccruedinterestonunsubsidized loans. Federal Perkins Loan The Perkins Loan is a federal, need-based loan. No interest accrues on this loan until you begin repayment. Direct PLUS Loan (Parent Loan) The PLUS Loan is a federal loan for parents of dependent students. Direct PLUS Loans are disbursed through the U.S. Department of Education with a fixed interest rate. Private Student Loans A number of lenders also offer private loans to students. Typically, repayment begins after short grace periodandyouareresponsiblefortheinterestwhileyoureincollege.Mostprivateloansrequireyouto have a credit-worthy cosigner.

Step 2
Choose the Right Credit Solution
Get information about the wide variety of credit products from personal loans to mortgages to lines of credit to credit cards that may fit your situation. Ask lots of questions and make sure you understand the answers. Consider different credit features, and all their pros and cons. For example, do you prefer to receive money as you need it from a credit line or a lump sum through a loan?
Step 3
Manage and Protect Your Credit
Make it as simple as possible to manage and track your expenses and payments to save you time and avoid expensive late fees that can also hurt your credit standing. Defend yourself against unauthorized use of your credit accounts and your private information. Know what you can or shouldntdo. Ifyouretryingtoimproveyourcredit situation,dontbetemptedtooverextend by loading up on additional credit. Think about the future. Keep living by that budget. Consider your access to emergency funds through credit or rainy-day savings. Develop and follow a plan to build your borrowing capacity should the need arise.
Know the basics: your credit history, your ability to make payments and whether you can borrow using collateral, such as the equity in your home.
If you think you need to rebuild your credit Dontgiveup!Make a plan to get your credit in shape. Face it go ahead and set up a budget and live by it. Helpful online tools are available and easy to use.
In place of signing up for new credit now, setting up a savings plan or an investment plan could be just what you need.
