Private College Student Loan

Where is the best place to find direct student loans?

I am attending UCSB in a month and it is going to cost me 7-8k per quarter. What loans would be best for me? Obviously direct subsidized loans would be the best, but is it better to get government loans or loans from the bank or where? Is there a website that compares different loan companies?

1. Citibank is the best student loan lender. Try their website 1st!
2. hI!!! Your question got me really interested because my sister is going to UCSB as well in a month too, she's gonna go for the Discovery loans, they offer you 0.5% apr, which is not as bad, but she'll look for more information, if you want to I can tell you by e-mail what she finds since you guys are going to the same school, maybe can go in the same path!.... just let me know! We have an aunt who works in the San Francisco trade center, so she knows a lot about how banks work and the best rates!!...
