Suggested sites to compare private loan options

Paying for College

<p>Can anyone suggest a legitimate site that compares different private student and/or parent loan options? Which one has worked well for you in the past? We are getting ready to send our 1st off to college and would like to hear your experience and feedback on this
Thanks</p>

<p>Have you thought about taking out a Parent PLUS loan? In a lot of cases they are better than private loans. They perform a soft credit check that doesn’t check your asset to debt ratio. You can apply at <a href=“http://www.studentloans.gov%5B/url%5D”>www.studentloans.gov</a>.</p>

<p>cubmale, see my post #22 in this thread <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/1122692-if-you-dont-get-any-financial-aid-2.html#post12384103[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/1122692-if-you-dont-get-any-financial-aid-2.html#post12384103&lt;/a&gt;
where I briefly discuss private loans and link to another thread (which contains links to previous threads) where the issue of private loans vs the PLUS loan have been discussed over the past 2 years.</p>

<p>This site has a chart which compares interest rates of various private loans: [FinAid</a> | Loans | Private Student Loans](<a href=“Your Guide for College Financial Aid - Finaid”>Private Student Loans - Finaid)</p>
