High school senior looking for Student Loans and Grants?

We Answered:

There are two sources for student loans -- the federal government and private lenders. In order to obtain most federal student loans, you will first need to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). A college student loan is a sum of money available to full time students, with a minimum level of interest required during the period in which they are registered as full time students. These types of loans rarely cover the entirecost of education, and most applicants refer to other financial aid options in order to meet their needs.In most instances the FAFSA is required for all federal financial aid including federal student loans. Deferment options are available while you are still attending school at least half-time. There are four main federal loan programs.

Denise Said:

Are there any grants to help a high school senior pay for a laptop computer to use in college?

We Answered:

Do you know which school you are going to? Try asking the college for instance I go to Iowa and their financial aid office will give out a loan specifically for a computer, but they also are willing to pay for a small part of it as well as having the government pay for it. I know some people that did that at my school and they said they ended up only having to back back a little less than half the loan. The loan was for the entire cost of the computer. But also try scholarships and simply asking big computer companies or Applications such as Microsoft. You would be surprised at how generous some huge companies will be if you simply ask.
