Should I take out a student loan from a bank or credit union?

Check with your school for a federally insured student loan. Then you’ll know.

Student loans from the Feds can be forgiven if you meet the right qualifications.

Loans from banks are a form of indentured servitude.

I always advise against student loans. Take longer to get your degree and work part time.

Don’t take a loan with no intention of paying it back either. I’m surprised at some of the answers here.

@MollyMcGuire Are you “surprised” at my answer? There are only two other answers besides yours, and I am the only one who spoke about loan forgiveness, which is not about taking ”...a loan with no intention of paying it back either.”

If one takes out a federal loan, there are provisions for public service as a means of paying back the loan. Bank and Credit Union loans don’t have those provisions.

Opt for something which is less pain in the $$^/ in future
