Student Loans VS credit Cards

Do you require lots of money for college expenses? Have you planned to pay through a credit card for books? Have you applied for any private loan or personal loan? Please think twice to apply before above options.

You can take federal loan for your study because nationalized loan has low rates of interest even they give facility to pay with easy installment after done your graduation. They give you 6-9 months period for payment. If you take private loan from other banks then obviously interest rate will be minor higher than national loan but they are also providing same facility after graduation.

If you pay with a credit card then the rate of interest can surely high as nearly 18% to 25%. Main disadvantage is that you have to pay installment from the next month. They don’t give any facility of easy installment but as of now, few personalized bank can give you EMI facility on the base of your previous credit records. For use of EMI facility, you need to do few paper works before use this facility.

Well, please don’t consider that students don’t have to credit cards in college life. In fact, that’s really better to have a credit card but you have to understand of advantages and disadvantage of it and how to utilize it. Sometime, credit card provides good security in emergencies. As of mentioned above that you have to know your requirement and future plan to pay loan.

What you need to take care after paid through credit cards? Pay regular amount every month to avoid extra charges as well as pay bill on regular timing to avoid late payment charges.
