SEMANTIC ANALYSIS

The results of our semantic analysis are shown below using the website's language.

They are the main concepts covered by discoverstudentloans.com.

Each concept has a confidence score. The higher it is, the more important the topic is relative to the page.

Topics
Private student loan (United States) Confidence: 81% Arrow up

A private student loan is a financing option for higher education in the United States that can supplement, but should not replace, federal loans, such as Stafford loans, Perkins loans and PLUS loans.

Private loans, which are heavily advertised, do not have the forbearance and deferral options available with federal loans (which are never advertised).

In contrast with federal subsidized loans, interest accrues while the student is in college, although repayment may not begin until after graduation.

While unsubsidized federal loans do have interest charges while the student is studying, private student loan rates are higher, sometimes much higher.

Fees vary greatly, and legal cases have reported fees reaching 50% of amount of the loan.

Although traditionally unsecured, these loans are increasingly secured, so that the borrower must offer collateral or a third-party guarantee of repayment.

Student loan Confidence: 76% Arrow up

A student loan is a type of loan designed to help students pay for post-secondary education and the associated fees, such as tuition, books and supplies, and living expenses.

It may differ from other types of loans in that the interest rate may be substantially lower and the repayment schedule may be deferred while the student is still in school.

It also differs in many countries in the strict laws regulating renegotiating and bankruptcy.

This article highlights the differences of the student loan system in several major countries.
