I'm high school teacher here in Atlanta and my daughter is attending Spelman College. Now, we've been wrestling with student loans it's like trying to catch greased pig at the county fair, ain't it? What options did you guys go with and any tips for getting the best rates? Also, if anyone has specifics about Spelman's policies or resources, that would be ace! Now, switching gears bit, my nephew is eyeing the business program at UGA anyone got inside scoop on that one? He's especially interested in entrepreneurial stuff. Thanks in advance y'all!

I'm an international student, so my experience with loans is tad different. Had to hunt around for options that catered to internationals. Discover Student Loans and MPOWER Financing were two found. They don't require cosigner from the US which was lifesaver for me. Also, check with your college’s financial aid office they're super helpful and can guide you better based on your specific situation.
 
Hey there! I totally get the struggle with student loans - it's a hot topic for us college students.I feel you on the financial stress. deadass when it comes to loans, make sure to explore all the options specific to our state. Have you looked into the HOPE Scholarship or any grants available through our school?

Those can be lifesavers! In my experience, talking to a financial aid advisor at the college really helped me navigate through the loan process. If you're feeling lost, don't hesitate to reach out to resources like the Student Financial Services office on campus. They might have some hidden gems or advice tailored to Georgia students like us. I'm curious, have you considered work-study programs or part-time jobs on or off-campus? It's tough balancing school and work, but sometimes it's necessary to lessen the loan burden. Let me know how your search is going! Keep pushing through - we got this together!
