Does anyone know, if you take out student loans for college, if it affects your credit and how?
My main question is, if you have enough in your savings to just cover you for college, are you better off burning your savings and not be able to invest that money elsewhere, or are you better off not touching that money and rather taking out interest free student loans to cover your college fees+ ? (obviously im only asking if you take a credit hit)
So basically,1) how does big student loans affect your credit score (or doesn't it),
and 2)given the choice would you rather use up your savings, or go for the loans?
All input would be greatly appreciated.
