[QUOTE="Knowlopedia, post: 324176, member: 91868"] Student loan debt can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. With a few smart strategies and careful budgeting, you can effectively manage your student loans while still paying off other debts. Here are some steps you should take: 1. Prioritize Your Debts: When it comes to minimizing the amount of interest you pay on your total debt balance, prioritize paying off high-interest debts first. This means that if you have multiple student loans with varying interest rates, focus on paying down the highest rate loan first before tackling lower rate ones; likewise for any other types of debt such as credit card balances or car payments. 2. Create a Repayment Plan: Make sure that all of your creditors know how much money is going towards each payment so they won’t try to collect more than what is due from one month to another – this will also help keep track of which bills need paid when and prevent late fees or penalties from accumulating unnecessarily over time . Create an automatic payment plan so that funds are deducted from your account each month at regular intervals without having to manually enter them in every time - this way there’s no chance for error or forgetting! 3 Consolidate Loans If Possible : For federal student loans , consider consolidating them into one single monthly bill by applying with the Department Of Education's Direct Loan program - this simplifies repayment and often reduces overall costs by allowing borrowers access better repayment plans (such as income-driven) and reducing origination fees charged when taking out new loans annually . Furthermore , private lenders may offer discounts on refinancing existing educational debt too – always shop around before making any decisions though! 4 Utilize Tax Benefits : Depending upon where in life students currently find themselves (or parents), certain tax breaks may apply related specifically toward education expenses like tuition costs or textbook purchases -- make sure these deductions aren't overlooked during filing season as they could potentially save hundreds if not thousands off owed amounts throughout coursework duration ! 5 Seek Professional Assistance If Needed : If navigating through various forms becomes too daunting then don't hesitate getting professional advice whether through free resources offered directly by lenders/institutions themselves OR consulting someone knowledgeable who specializes specifically within field-- many times just talking things out helps clear up confusion & provide insight into what options might exist otherwise missed due diligence alone [/QUOTE]
