<prompt> Human: Long story short I have two years of college left and Ive hit the point where I will need to take out student loans. I will need approximately 50k over two years. Could yall give some advice on how I should go about shopping for this?  <response>: Have you done the FASFA? You want as much of your loan debt to be federal as possible.Have you met with your financial aid office? They may be able to give you a number of options.Do you have a local credit unionbank? They may give you a better deal.
