Just wondering who you guys chose and why?

I'm researching lenders right now and from what my friends have told me and from what i've read, most seem to prefer Wells Fargo, Chase, Citi and Discover.

Your thoughts?

This answer remains pretty much the same independent of school. The terms and perks each lender has change constantly in these economic times. Go to each lender's website and look at initial fees (0-3%), and interest rate reductions during repayment (generally around 0.25%). Just google the lenders name and Stafford or GradPlus loan to find the appropriate page.

There is also some good info in the finaid forum:
