Plus Loans from NextStudent Available For Fall Semester and During the Year

The fall semester at college is just about to begin, and many parents wonder if they are in a position to help their children with their education costs. College funding is still available, now and throughout the year, for parents who take out a PLUS Loan - Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students, according to NextStudent, the premier education funding company based in Phoenix.

NextStudent offers PLUS Loans with rates as low as 6.25 percent along with benefits, including a 2 percent rate reduction following the first 48 months of on-time payments, and an additional .25 percent rate reduction when parent borrowers repay with Auto Debit.

Parent borrowers easily can receive a PLUS Loan because the loans are not based on financial need. An easy, fast preapproval process enables parent borrowers to receive the funds they need without having to wait long periods of time.

Receive up to 100 Percent of Education Costs

Up to 100 percent of education costs are available, less financial aid received, so that borrowers can make sure their children cover the costs of tuition, fees, housing, transportation and supplies.

With NextStudent's federal PLUS Loans parents have the option to borrow throughout the year. For 2006-07 parents can borrow up through May 31, 2007 to cover all education expenses for students. The loans also can reimburse parents who already paid tuition and other expenses.

Federal PLUS Loans qualify for federal loan consolidation and interest may be tax-deductible. Terms for repayment usually are 10 years. The repayment terms starts within 60 days of the final disbursement. In addition, there never are prepayment penalties.
