How big is your student loan?

[cowpoos]

That's partially why mine's so big now too. That and the fact that you could draw down thousands at a time rather than the weekly amount. Buggered if I can remember what I spent it on!

Pay it back?...... ....

What if you just ignore it and have no real idea??

Wheres the I'm still adding to it option, or the I'm saving my living costs for a 600 at the end of the year option

[bobsmith]

Shoot me now... I believe it's around 105k now and set to increase to 110k by the end of the year.....

[BuFfY]

Actually... I think it might be around $15 k ish when I finish. But I got a scholarship last year that paid some of it. But the statements are generally only for the one year... and I can't find my first year one!

doesnt matter anyway...you get a job, you tell your employer you have a student loan and they calculate how much you have to pay and pay it for ya before you get the rest then wait for the ird to say its all done

Yeah that is why I'm not too fussed. And we don't pay interest or anything so I am more than happy to take my living costs instead of working three jobs!! (where I would be double taxed anyway!!)

Got paid the whole way through my degree (BE) and my employer paid for that as well, now doing post grad stuff in England paid by them as well............Thanks Aunty Helen.

like your sig by the way!! haha

but it concerns me a little that you've managed right from birth...eeeewwwww!!!!

[MisterD]

But I've got 12K in the bank. Why pay it back though when I've effectively got an interest free deposit on a house!

...and our socialist vote-buying overlords told us this would never happen! Yeah, right students are stupid, that's why they're at uni....
