How does the perkins loan

#1 Postby robilee » Wed Aug 25, 2010 1:23 am

How does the perkins loan differ from the stafford loan? I qualified for like a $500 perkins loan as well as some stafford loans, and I spent all my financial aid researching time looking at stafford loans, so I don't know much about the perkins loan. I looked it up and read that the two are similar, but how are they different?

I had both in college years ago. I don't remember any difference any at all as far as paying them. You get them, you pay them. There are probably some minor differences as far as when interest is accruing at the beginning and so on. They were just created at different times by different lawmakers. IMO take either or both.
