Financing Higher Education

I'm glad we did this topic. Financing Higher Education is something that I have to start looking into because I will be going into college in two years. I will probably apply for financial aid. Financial aid is a "Free Application for Federal Student Aid" which is the main form used to apply for federal education grants and loans. Another thing I learned is the good things about a loan for school is you get a grace period of 6 months.

Credit Score

Your credit score is a very important thing, something you should not mess with and should work hard to keep high.Your credit score is a numerical rating of you credit card-worthiness. Banks and other lenders use credit scores to evaluate if somebody is qualified for a loan. This topic can be applied to my life because now I know to always try to keep my credit score high. I know now not to buy or take loans I can’t pay back.
