College is Calling. Don't let money stand in the way. Whether it's your first child headed to college or your fourth, planning for college can be a stressful time for you and your child. You may be inundated with a mountain of financial aid information or you may be just at the beginning of the process. Either way, CampusDoor helps explain your financial aid options in a concise and understandable way so you get the information you need and the money to pay for college in one place. Your family does have options to pay for college and we'll help you get started. First, and foremost, your child should maximize all scholarships and grants. The more "free" money your child can get to help pay for school, the better. Second, your child should maximize federal loans (Stafford and Perkins) as they offer low interest rates and flexible repayment options. Unfortunately, for most families, these options may not be enough to pay for your child's entire tuition and other educational expenses. When you are faced with a financial gap, a CampusDoor student loan can help you and your child get the money needed to help pay for college. So, even though you may still stress about your "baby" making it on his or her own at college, at least you won't have to stress about your child's next tuition bill. The articles in this section will explain the importance of credit, reasons to cosign your child's loan, the difference between a PLUS loan and a private loan, and why CampusDoor may be a good choice for your family.
