Should I borrow excess student loan to pay high interest credit card debt now?
Posted in Online Loan on 03/17/2011 01:54 pm byMark M asked:
I am a graduate student and I am 33 years old. The only information I can locate is geared towards young students. I have a crippling amount of credit card debt but I am currently enrolled in a graduate program and I am eligible for enough excess student loan money to pay off the credit card debt. I realize this is simply “moving debt” but student loans are far more forgiving, can be delayed until after I graduate, and carry only a fraction of the interest rate. Why would I not borrow the maximum allowable amount on a student loan, and apply it towards high interest credit card debts now? Anyone have any ideas? Much appreciated!

will credit card debt hurt my chances of getting a student loan?

Is a student loan considered good long-term debt that making payments to will increase your credit? Or is it only things like houses and car loans?

I need a loan of around £5000 to pay off a student loan/bursary and clear other debt, I’d rather get it all of my chest. My bank (Halifax) will not give me one with no credit history, other banks don’t offer loans to under 21′s.
