Are you getting a refund each semester from your student account? You may be borrowing
more than you need. If you receive a refund each semester and are borrowing funds,
you should stop by the Financial Aid office to discuss reducing your loans so you're
not borrowing so much. Because remember, what you borrow, you will owe back to your
loan servicer after you graduate!
