Best place to get Stafford Loans

[speter33]

I heard that some places offer a 0% origination fee for Stafford loans. This sounds great since citibank currently charges me 3%. Also I heard that there are other perks and discounts from some bank. I've been unable to find anything suitable for me thus far. If anyone has had an experience or knows of a good place to get a stafford loan please share.

Education Loan Resources.

They have 0 fees and they also give 2.5% interest reduction immediately at payback.

I just went to their site and it looks like there is a 1.5% origination fee

I have heard that Access Group is another 0% origination fee lender. You can check them out at www.accessgroup.org

Try wells fargo's MedCAP? Alternative Loan for Health Professionals. This is where I get loans that exceed the Federal Loan maximum of $38,500. There are no origination or repayment fees or guarantee fees or anything like that. The other thing that I like about it is that the interest rates are very low for an alternative loan.

Bank of America looks like the best deal I've come across. Your school will probably list Citibank and Nelliemae as "preferred providers." They prefer to rip you off. Make sure to look around

I can't believe I only found out about these stupid origination fees just now, but I'm glad I did. I'm hussling to change lenders. Thanx everyone

The ELR loan is 0 origination. At least through USC it is.
