Have you ever heard the story of Rich Dad, Poor Dad? This is actually a best-selling book authored by one of the most successful men in the world, Robert Kiyosaki. He couldn’t stress enough how important education is. No matter what path you decide to take in the future, education will always be your foundation. What do the Rich Dad and Poor Dad have in common? That’s right – education. You need it to look for a job and to start your own business. You need it to enhance your knowledge, gain respect and have a good reputation. Well, the truth is, education does not come cheap. Learning is not easy whether this is done inside and outside the four walls of a classroom. University education is expensive and so very few are able to afford it and get a good degree.

So for those who really want to go to college but can’t afford to, they can apply for student loans. As they say, if there’s a will, there’s a way. Schools have their own financing programs and grants for scholars. There are also many lending companies that are very willing to support students who want to get a degree.

You’ll be surprised that applying for a student loan is easier than ever. Many companies have their own websites which students can read and study. They just have to follow the correct process of application. Online application is very easy as students just have to first create their own finance accounts. After doing so, they have to log in to their own account and fill out the online application form. After this comes the sending of requirements such as a scanned copy of an ID, proof of income and others. You will be then sent the loan declaration which you are required to sign and return to the company. That is the common process for new full-time students.

For those who are just continuing their studies, they have to follow a simpler process. They just need to log in to their current account and update the necessary details there. After submitting the correct information, they will just wait for the loan declaration via mail and send it back with their signature. Usually, the money is received at the beginning of the term.

In many countries, like Canada, they have what is called the Canada Student Loans Program (CSLP) which is available for full and part time students and also those in post secondary education. More than 4 million students have received more than $30 billion since CSLP started in 1964. Truly, this organization has helped many finish their education. CSLP offers student grants which do not need to be paid back and student loans, which have to be paid after a specified period of time.

So do a thorough research on government programs and also lending companies in your area. They just might be able to help cover your education needs. Read carefully the policies to know how to stay in the program and to know when to pay.
